In agreement with our immunoblotting analysis, we observed an induction of CHAC1 under cystine starvation in CHAC1 expressing H1299 cells but not those subject to CRISPR/Cas9-mediated CHAC1 knockout 48 , indicating antibody specificity (Supplementary Fig
Figure 1 The melanocortin receptors are modulated by several endogenous peptides, such as -, -, and -melanocyte stimulating hormone (MSH) and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), which are derived from proopiomelanocortin (POMC) precursors (29)

they are also known as nutrient-stimulated hormones
Finally, we will provide an overview of development considerations for future MC agonists and discuss where this mechanism of action fits into the larger obesity treatment landscape
