Belinda Chong (Victorian Clinical Genetics Services)
Single consanguineous Caucasian family from the United Kingdom in which 3 sibs had retinal dystrophy and obesity.
PMID: 28852204 Mutations in the Tubby gene (TUB) cause late-onset obesity and insulin resistance in mice and syndromic obesity in humans. Although TUB gene function has not yet been fully elucidated, studies in rodents indicate that TUB is involved in the hypothalamic pathways regulating food intake and adiposity.Created: 3 Nov 2021, 4:40 a.m. | Last Modified: 3 Nov 2021, 4:40 a.m.
