Torpor in mice is induced by both leptin-dependent and -independent mechanisms
Gavrilova, Oksana, Leon, Lisa R., Marcus-Samuels, Bernice, Mason, Mark M., Castle, Arthur L., Refetoff, Samuel, ...
We tested the effect of chronic leptin treatment on fasting-induced torpor in leptin-deficient A-ZIP/F-1 and ob/ob mice. A-ZIP/F-1 mice have virtually no white adipose tissue and low leptin levels,...
