Leptin in Whales: Validation and Measurement of mRNA Expression by Absolute Quantitative Real-Time PCR
Leptin is the primary hormone in mammals that regulates adipose stores. Arctic adapted cetaceans maintain enormous adipose depots, suggesting possible modifications of leptin or receptor function. Determining expression of these genes is the first step to understanding the extreme physiology of thes...
