Description
Brainstem-restricted receptor for GDF15 which regulates food intake, energy expenditure and body weight in response to metabolic and toxin-induced stresses (PubMed: 28953886, PubMed: 28846099, PubMed: 28846097, PubMed: 28846098). Upon interaction with its ligand, GDF15, interacts with RET and induces cellular signaling through activation of MAPK- and AKT- signaling pathways (PubMed: 28846098, PubMed: 28846099)
