p32 heterozygosity protects against age- and diet-induced obesity by increasing energy expenditure

Abstract Obesity is increasing in prevalence and has become a global public health problem. The main cause of obesity is a perturbation in energy homeostasis, whereby energy intake exceeds energy expenditure. Although mitochondrial dysfunction has been linked to the deregulation of energy homeostasi...
