Altered ghrelin secretion in mice in response to diet-induced obesity and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass

The current study examined potential mechanisms for altered circulating ghrelin levels observed in diet-induced obesity (DIO) and following weight loss resulting from Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). We hypothesized that circulating ghrelin levels were altered in obesity and after weight loss throu...
