Several studies have shown that obesity is associated with elevated serum levels of a wide range of inflammatory markers including C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin 6 (IL-6), interleukin 8 (IL-8), and monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1) [3, 4]. Here, CRP is linked to obesity due to melanocortin 4 receptor deficiency.
