Interleukin Genetics will present a poster titled, "Perilipin, IL-1 and ADRB Gene Variants Identify Bariatric Surgery Patients who are Resistant to Weight Loss under Calorie Restriction in Preoperative Weight Loss Program." The poster, #322-P, highlights findings which suggest that genetic polymorphisms in perilipin, IL-1 and ADRB genes show strong association with resistance to weight loss under caloric restriction. These genetic risk markers could have important clinical utility in the medical management of obese patients and in the design of optimal weight loss programs.

In addition to the scientific presentations, Interleukin Genetics will exhibit at the following conference.
