Abstract excerpt

AIMS: GPR61 is an orphan G protein-coupled receptor whose function remains unknown. The purpose of the present study is to elucidate the importance of GPR61 in metabolism by characterization of GPR61-deficient mice. MAIN METHODS: Male GPR61-deficient mice were characterized regarding various metabolic parameters, including food intake, body weight, oxygen consumption, body temperature, locomotor activity, and in...
