Knockout of murine <i>Lyplal1</i> confers sex-specific protection against diet-induced obesity
2021-08-05
Abstract excerpt
Human genome-wide association studies found SNPs near LYPLAL1 that have sex-specific effects on fat distribution and metabolic traits. To determine whether altering LYPLAL1 affects obesity and metabolic disease we created and characterized a mouse knockout of Lyplal1 . Here we show that CRISPR-Cas9 whole-body Lyplal1 knockout (KO) mice fed a high fat, high sucrose (HFHS) diet showed sex-specific differences in...
