FGF21 Signals Protein Status to the Brain and Adaptively Regulates Food Choice and Metabolism

Summary: Reduced dietary protein intake induces adaptive physiological changes in macronutrient preference, energy expenditure, growth, and glucose homeostasis. We demonstrate that deletion of the FGF21 co-receptor βKlotho (Klb) from the brain produces mice that are unable to mount a physiological r...
