Textbook Question
Chapter 41.5, Problem 2CC
WHAT IF? → Suppose you were studying two groups of obese people with genetic abnormalities in the leptin pathway. In one group, the leptin levels are abnormally high; in the other group, they are abnormally low. How would each group's leptin levels change if they ate a low-calorie diet for an extended period? Explain.

When mice are given a derivative of cerulenin (a fungal epoxide) named C75, their appetite is suppressed and they rapidly lose weight. Cerulenin and its derivatives have been shown to be potent inhibitors of fatty acid synthase (FAS). Suggest how C75 might act as a potential weight reduction drug"Thanks.
