    Psychiatric illness in adults with PWS
    One of the most troubling features of PWS is the high risk of mental illness in adults with the syndrome. Although a considerable amount has been written on obsessive-compulsive traits, stubbornness and maladaptive behaviors associated with PWS, less is known

    Deletion vs. UPD: 70/30 or 50/50?
    Most information about PWS starts out with a brief overview of the genetics of the condition. Deletion of chromosome 15 is listed as the most common cause of PWS, accounting for roughly 70% of cases. Maternal Uniparental Disomy (UPD), in

    Obestatin is not elevated in PWS
    An article published last year described a new appetite suppressing peptide hormone, obestatin (see previous blog and reference here). One interesting feature about this peptide is that it appears to be derived from the same precursor as ghrelin, the hunger

    Role for CPT-1 in weight regulation
    A new article out in the Journal of Clinical Investigation identifies a new role for the enzyme CPT-1 in weight regulation; the link and a commentary are below. (all JCI commentary and articles are freely available at http://www.jci.org/ if you

    A role for PWS-snoRNAs, finally!
    There's a new paper out in a top journal, Science, on what is may be the first understanding of the underlying molecular basis of features of PWS - The snoRNA HBII-52 regulates alternative splicing of the serotonin receptor 2C --

    Why is leptin ignored in obese people and animals?
    As many of you know, leptin is the signal released from fat cells that relays a message to the brain that the fat cells are 'full' and it's time to stop eating. It has also been discovered that leptin works

    Mighty muscles
    Myostatin normally keeps muscles from growing. Scientist are trying to inhibit myostatin as a therapeutic approach for kids with muscular dystrophy; this strategy has just entered clinical trials using an antibody that sops up the myostatin. Working with Wyeth (say

    Narrowing down the genetic region responsible for PWS
    Below you'll find the abstract for a newly published paper trying to narrow down exactly which DNA sequences in the PW region of chromosome 15 are responsible for PWS. Here, the authors investigate a patient who meets the diagnostic criteria
