ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to weight control, control of body fat and food intake, and provides useful methods for treating, inter alia, obesity, diabetes and insulin insensitivity, and conditions, diseases, and disorders relating thereto. The invention also relates to methods of identifying useful compounds relating to weight loss, food intake, diabetes, and obesity, among other things, based on the discovery that inhibiting Kv1.3 activity mediates decreased food intake, weight loss, decreased body fat, increase glucose uptake, and increased insulin sensitivity, among other things.
