Rare Variants in Genes Linked to Appetite Control and Hypothalamic Development in Early-Onset Severe Obesity

Context: The hypothalamic circuit has an essential role in the regulation of appetite and energy expenditure. Pathogenic variants in genes involved in the hypothalamic leptin–melanocortin pathway, including melanocortin-4-receptor (MC4R), have been associated with monogenic obesity.Objective: To det...
