| Abstract | Purpose: Recent studies have raised concerns that obese children may present an increased pre-disposition towards age–related disorders such as cancer. Initial evidence would suggest that the increased risk of developing cancer later in life might be linked to the reported presence of chronic low–grade inflammation in childhood obesity and the sustained accumulation of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) capable of inflicting DNA damage, a well–known promoter and driver of carcinogenesis. This conceptual framework outlines the clinical and laboratory investigations required for the combined assessment and monitoring of systemic inflammation, micro–nutritional deficiencies and acquired genome damage in childhood obesity. |
