Outline of Final Research Achievements

Although anti-obesity action has also been reported, details of its mechanism of action are unknown. In this research, we clarified the following. 1. It was suggested that GALP activates the sympathetic nervous system via MC4R. 2. It was revealed that GALP affects not only fatty acid but also bile acid metabolism. 3. The effect of GALP varies depending on the administration time, and it is revealed that lipid metabolism is activated immediately after administration, but glucose metabolism is activated after 16 hours.
