Abstract
Breastfeeding may interact with other risk factors and have a combined influence on child growth. This systematic review aimed to examine the interaction between genetic factors and breastfeeding and how their combination is associated with children weight status. Four databases were searched until August 2024, and 8 eligible studies were identified. The fat mass and obesity associated (FTO) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ2 (PPARG2) genes were the most examined genes. Although the results of interactions between breastfeeding and genetics factors on children’s weight status were inconsistent, some of studies reported that breastfeeding or exclusive breastfeeding attenuated the disadvantageous association between the risk alleles of the genes (higher obesity-specific genetic risk score for a multiple-gene study) and overdevelopment of children’s body weight. These findings support the WHO recommendations for prolonged breastfeeding and further suggest breastfeeding interventions to prevent childhood obesity may be more effective in populations with a disadvantageous genetic predisposition.
This review was registered in PROSPERO as CRD42023448365.
期刊介绍:
Advances in Nutrition (AN/Adv Nutr) publishes focused reviews on pivotal findings and recent research across all domains relevant to nutritional scientists and biomedical researchers. This encompasses nutrition-related research spanning biochemical, molecular, and genetic studies using experimental animal models, domestic animals, and human subjects. The journal also emphasizes clinical nutrition, epidemiology and public health, and nutrition education. Review articles concentrate on recent progress rather than broad historical developments.
In addition to review articles, AN includes Perspectives, Letters to the Editor, and supplements. Supplement proposals require pre-approval by the editor before submission. The journal features reports and position papers from the American Society for Nutrition, summaries of major government and foundation reports, and Nutrient Information briefs providing crucial details about dietary requirements, food sources, deficiencies, and other essential nutrient information. All submissions with scientific content undergo peer review by the Editors or their designees prior to acceptance for publication.
