A human obesity-associated MC4R mutation with defective Gq/11α signaling leads to hyperphagia in mice

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Investigation
Melanocortin 4 receptor (MC4R) mutations are the most common cause of human monogenic obesity and are associated with hyperphagia and increased linear growth.

Melanocortin 4 receptor-expressing neurons in the lateral stripe of the striatum regulate affect and motor control

open access: yesiScience
Summary: The dopaminergic system is crucial for affect regulation. Melanocortin 4 receptors (MC4R) in the ventral striatum have been shown to be necessary for establishing aversive states.

MC4R: A Genetic Key to Metabolic and Cardiovascular Disorders

open access: yesBiomedical Sciences and Clinical Medicine
The melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4R) is a critical regulator of energy homeo-stasis, lipid metabolism, and cardiovascular risk factors. First cloned in 1993, MC4R’s role in appetite regulation was confirmed through animal studies, and its genetic ...
