Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2004535183
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
The present invention relates generally to nucleic acid molecules at least expressed in liver or stomach tissue and identified using a differential display or macroarray technique or another technique capable of detecting differential expression of nucleic acid molecules under differing physiological conditions. Expression products from the nucleic acid molecules of the present invention are associated with or act as markers for one or more of a healthy state, obesity, anorexia, weight maintenance, impaired muscle development, diabetes and/or metabolic energy levels and/or altered physiological conditions. The identification of the present nucleic acid molecules and their expression products and/or their derivatives, homologs, analogs and mimetics are proposed to be useful as therapeutic and diagnostic agents or as targets for agents which act as modulators and/or monitors of physiological processes associated with obesity, anorexia, weight maintenance, impaired muscle development, diabetes and/or metabolic energy levels and/or other physiological conditions.
