Abstract excerpt

Leptin is a hormone expressed mainly in white adipose tissue. It acts on satiety centers in the hypothalamus, and by binding to particular receptor OB-Rb, plays a crucial role in controlling appetite, body weight, fat amount and total energy balance. In this study, a novel single nucleotide polym...
