In addition to their role in food intake regulation and nutrition absorption, a growing body of evidence supports that flavonoids increase adiponectin and AMPK activation and counteract NF-κB and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) signaling pathways, resulting in reduced oxidative damage and inflammation associated with obesity [108,109,110,111]. The gene discussed is NFKB1; the disease is obesity due to melanocortin 4 receptor deficiency.
