Abstract
The present invention provides transgenic animals having a reduced level of expression of peptide YY (PYY) and drug screening platforms using the transgenic animals for identifying agonists and antagonists of PYY. The present invention further provides monoclonal antibodies that bind specifically to full-length PYY[1-36] or the processed form thereof i.e., PYY[3-36] and to diagnostic and drug screening platforms using the monoclonal antibodies. The invention has particular utility for the diagnosis of a predisposition or risk of a subject becoming obese, developing one or more pathologies associated with obesity, or developing a disease/disorder of bone tissue.
