Abstract:
This invention relates to the relationship between infection with adipogenic adenoviruses, such as adenovirus-36 (Ad-36) and the etiologies of obesity and obesity-related cancers and other diseases. Additionally, the invention relates to assaying a subject for Ad-36 status and using Ad-36 status as a marker for the presence of cancer, to predict the future risk of developing cancers, such as breast or prostate cancer, and/or to predict the aggressiveness and prognosis of these cancers.
Adenovirus Status As A Predictor Of Body Composition Change, Disease Status, And Treatment Outcomes
Infection with obesifying adenoviruses in animals and humans may be used to predict changes in body weight and disease status. More particularly, infection with certain adenoviruses, such as adenovirus type 36 (Ad-36) and adenovirus type 37 (Ad-37) may cause removal of the normal equilibrium factors that control fat cell metabolism and may make individuals more responsive than normal individuals to perturbations, which cause body composition change including weight gain or weight loss.
This invention relates to the relationship between infection with an adipogenic adenovirus, such as adenovirus-36, and obesity-related disease. In particular, this invention relates to assaying a subject to determine the adipogenic adenovirus infection status and then determining the subject's predisposition to developing an obesity-related disease based on the adipogenic adenovirus infection status.
