Blockade of MCH1 receptor signalling ameliorates obesity and related hepatic steatosis in ovariectomized mice

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) is a cyclic orexigenic neuropeptide predominantly expressed in the lateral hypothalamus. We investigated the roles of MCH1 receptor signalling in ovariectomy (OVX)-induced obesity in female C57BL/6J mice, an animal model of postmenopausal o...
