Grant Program:
Project
Grant Activity:
Central control of energy partitioning
Purpose:
This study will build on exciting data from our lab which reveal the potential for altering the body’s propensity to store excess energy as fat and instead directing the energy into the production and maintenance of the skeleton. It will focus on the interaction between leptin and neuropeptide Y in the hypothalamus, a coordinating centre in the brain critical to the regulation of energy homeostasis. This research has the potential to result in novel treatments for obesity and osteoporosis.
