Analysis of knockout mice suggests a role for VGF in the control of fat storage and energy expenditure

BACKGROUND: Previous studies of mixed background mice have demonstrated that targeted deletion of Vgf produces a lean, hypermetabolic mouse that is resistant to diet-, lesion-, and genetically-induced obesity. To investigate potential mechanism(s) and site(s) of action of VGF, a neuronal and endocri...
