 The Heart of a Zucker
Less visible health problems plaguing the Zucker rats include diabetes (the type II non-insulin-dependent variety) and abnormal heart function.These defects stem from a faulty protein in the hormone control center of the brain, the hypothalamus.

Says Crist, "It may have a direct effect on cardiac tissue, or the improvement in cardiac function following treatment with BW1433 may actually be due to effects on the pancreas or some other endocrine organ." It probably acts somewhere along the leptin receptor pathway, since it overrides some effects of the defective leptin receptor.
