Carnitine metabolism in peripheral tissues, such as muscle, maintains appropriate cellular metabolism and function. Little is known about carnitine metabolism in specific populations of brain cells regulate food intake and appetite. This project aims to understand how carnitine metabolism affect brain cells that regulate food intake and body weight.

外周组织如肌肉中的肉毒碱代谢维持适当的细胞代谢和功能。鲜为人知的是，肉毒碱代谢在特定人群的脑细胞调节食物摄入量和食欲。该项目旨在了解肉毒碱代谢如何影响调节食物摄入量和体重的脑细胞。
