LEPR polymorphism may affect energy balance during weight loss among Brazilians obese adolescents
, 2017 Objective: Leptin is an adipokine released mainly by adipose tissue, with many functions including regulation of energy balance. However, little is known about the effect of LEPR polymorphism on orexigenic and anorexigenic neuropeptides. Thus, the aim of
