This study identifies Adig as a regulator of lipid droplet formation by stabilizing the dodecameric seipin complex, leading to increased fat mass and thermogenesis in mice.

This study identifies a molecular pathway involving MC4R and Kir7.1 that mediates clozapine-induced hyperphagia and weight gain in mice.

This study shows that Prdm12 is essential for nociceptor development but not for adult pain sensation, with distinct transcriptional effects in embryonic and adult dorsal root ganglia.

The paper profiles transcriptomes of developing POMC and NPY/AgRP neurons to identify Prdm12 as a key regulator of energy balance through its role in POMC neuron specification.
