BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES OBJECTIVE
Melanocortins mediate their biological functions via five different melanocortin receptors (MC1R - MC5R). MC1R is expressed in the skin and leukocytes, where it regulates skin pigmentation and inflammatory responses. MC1R is also present in the liver and white adipose tissue, but its functional role in these tissues is unclear. This study aimed at determining the regulatory role of MC1R in fatty acid metabolism.
METHODS METHODS
Male recessive yellow (Mc1r
RESULTS RESULTS
Chow- and Western diet-fed Mc1r
CONCLUSIONS CONCLUSIONS
Hepatocyte-specific loss of MC1R disturbs fatty acid metabolism in the liver and leads to an obesity phenotype characterized by enhanced adipocyte hypertrophy and TG accumulation in the liver and circulation.
