ABSTRACT
Growth differentiation factor 15(GDF15) is a member of transforming growth factor β superfamily. Animal studies find that GDF15, bounding with centrally expressed receptors, reduces body weight by inhibiting food intake and by enhancing energy metabolism. In addition, GDF15 is also involved in the effects of tumor cachexia and platinum-based chemotherapy on body weight. GDF15 and its receptor could be potential targets for the treatment of such diseases.
