pubmed-article:11156435 | pubmed:abstractText | Hypothalamic neuropeptide CART (cocaine-amphetamine-regulated transcript) is a leptin-dependent endogenous satiety factor in the rat, and single central injections of recombinant CART(42-89) lowers food intake in rats and mice. To assess the potential role of CART as a long-term regulator of food intake, we investigated the effects of continuous infusion of recombinant CART(42-89) on food consumption and body weight. | lld:pubmed |
