Leptin signaling defects in a mouse model of Prader-Willi syndrome: An orphan genetic obesity syndrome no more?
Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a rare (~1 in 12,000) genetic disorder that involves at least six genes on chromosome 15q11–q13. Children with PWS not only rapidly gain weight and become severely obese because of reduced voluntary activity and increased food intake, but also exhibit growth hormone de...
