%X Neuronal growth regulator 1 (NEGR1) is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored membrane protein that mediates neural cell communication and synapse formation. Multiple genome-wide association studies have reported that variations in NEGR1 are associated with human body weight control. Recently, we found that NEGR1 is involved in intracellular cholesterol trafficking, suggesting that it performs a non-central nervous system (CNS) function associated with human obesity
