Experiment

Effect of Heph (hephaestin) ablation on meal patterns
Summary Data Summary
Investigator Vulpe, Chris
Description Hephaestin is a protein expressed in many tissues in the body that are involved
in iron export from cells. Mice with a mutation in this gene have been shown to
accumulate iron in the brain and intestinal cells. We have preliminary evidence
to suggest an association with weight gain. Mutant mice also exhibit motor
defects with age.
