Celebrating two decades of leptin

11 Feb 2014


In a seminal 1994 publication, Jeffrey M Friedman and colleagues isolated the ob gene by positional cloning and subsequently identified its product Leptin.

To celebrate the 20th anniversary of its discovery, the Journal of Endocrinology will be publishing a leptin special issue guest edited by Professor Sir Stephen O’Rahilly.
