Abstract
Our results suggested that both anorexic and thermogenic mechanisms were activated by MTII in the MSG-obese rats and contributed to the decrease in body weight and fat mass. Moreover, there was a sensitization to MTII caused by upregulation of the melanocortin receptor in the MSG-obese rats.
