Functional characterization of TrkB and Ob-R mutations identified in severely obese children (TRKB AND OB-R)
Start date: Dec 1, 2007, End date: Jun 30, 2009,
The obesity epidemic is a pressing problem, resulting in diverse metabolic and psychological disorders.Identification of genes whose disruption causes obesity in rodents has led to rapid progress in understanding the signalling pathways responsible for the regulation of body weight in mammals, and an increasing number of severely obese humans have been found to carry mutations in those same genes. ...
