ST. LOUIS, Missouri, May 2 -- The Washington University St. Louis School of Medicine issued the following news release:
Disabling a gene in specific mouse cells, researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have prevented mice from becoming obese, even after the animals had been fed a high-fat diet.
The researchers blocked the activity of a gene in immune cells. Because these immune cells -- called macrophages -- are key inflammatory cells and be . . .
