Experiment

Cobas Order # 2417
Summary Data Summary
Investigator Aguirre, Vincent
Description By gaining a better understanding of the effects of gastric bypass on obesity
and diabetes, we hope to develop therapies that are less-invasive but equally
efficacious. Study of these animals aides us in better understanding why humans
with MC4R deficiency (mutations) may respond differently to gastric bypass.

MC4R KO mice are obese, hyperphagic, and hyperinsulinemic with impaired
metabolism.

Digestive
