Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to collect data to help researchers better understand the various causes of obesity, which may lead to the development of new obesity treatment options.
Detailed Description: Obesity is major metabolic health concern and the potential beneficial effects of natriuretic peptides, specifically B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) on adipocyte biology, energy expenditure and body weight could be of great significance. This study will provide insight into the mechanisms of dysregulation of the natriuretic peptides system in obesity and will contribute to delineate the roles and the clinical importance of BNP in the treatment of obesity.
