Metreleptin as A Rescue Therapy in A Patient With A Novel Mutation for Familial Partial Lipodystrophy Type 3, Originally Presenting as Type 1 Diabetes.

2021-01-28

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Familial partial lipodystrophy type 3 (FPLD3) is a very rare autosomal dominant genetic disorder which is caused by mutations in the peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma ( PPARG ) gene.
