Abstract excerpt

Catecholamines strongly promote lipolysis and thermogenesis, and play a central role in the regulation of body fat content. The beta1 adrenergic receptor (BAR-1) is a major mediator of catecholamine-induced lipolysis and thermogenesis. To explore whether mutations in the BAR-1 gene contribute to...
