Genetic contributions to body weight in mice: relationship of exploratory behavior to weight.

Obesity research - 1 Jul 2003

Zhang Shumin, Gershenfeld Howard K

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: The A/J and C57BL/6J mouse strains differ markedly in their exploratory behavior and their weight gain on a high-fat diet. We examined the genetic contributions of exploratory behavior to body weight and tested for shared, pleiotropic loci influencing energy homeostasis. RESEARCH METHO...
