Abstract

The expression of mRNA of leptin, the product of the obese gene, in bovine adipose tissue was analyzed by a lysate RNase protection assay. The mRNA level was significantly decreased by food deprivation for two days and partially recovered after 3 hr of refeeding, indicating that obese gene expression in the ruminant was regulated by feeding.
