Corticotropin releasing factor (CRF) and leptin contributions to energy balance in genetically obese (lep-ob/lep-ob) mice, possible involvement of CRF in the leptin effects
Both corticotropin releasing factor (CRF), a central neuropeptide and initiating factor for adrenocorticortropic hormone and corticosterone, and leptin, the product of the 'OB' gene, which is absent in genetically obese 'lep'ob/'lep'ob mice, have similar effects on ene...
