Obesity: progress through genetic manipulation.

Current biology : CB - 26 Mar 1998

Levine A S, Billington C J

Abstract excerpt

Transgenic mice have been produced that either lack or overproduce neuroregulatory substances implicated in the control of food intake and body weight. Are such mice useful models for understanding the underlying etiology of obesity in humans?
