Zusammenfassung:[...]germline loss of Fto causes perinatal lethality and growth retardation, which may give rise to secondary effects that are unrelated to the mechanism by which variation in FTO affects human metabolism [7], [8]. [...]the observation that RER is decreased in the germline and adult onset Fto ko mice points to a role of Fto in regulating peripheral metabolism and substrate utilization.
