Mice overexpressing human uncoupling protein-3 in skeletal muscle are hyperphagic and lean
Article Abstract:
Mice are studied with reference to their overexpressing of a human uncoupling protein-3 (UCP-3). The results using magnetic resonance imaging show that these mice are hyperphagic and lean and that UCP-3 can affect metabolic rate.
