The major function of the immune system is to protect the host from environmental agents such as microbes or chemicals, thereby preserving the integrity of the body. The immune system keeps a record of every germ (microbe) it has ever defeated so it can recognize and destroy the microbe quickly if it enters the body again.

Assuming that coleman's hypotheses about the ob and db genes are correct, rank the mice by the amount of appetite-suppressing ho
Ber [7]
The hypothesis by Coleman was that the product of the ob+ gene was the appetite suppressing hormone.  Hence, the homozygous ob/ob mutant are in a position to synthesize that hormone, and its circulating level would be zero. He also hypothesized that the  product of the db+ gene was the receptor for the appetite-suppressing hormone. Thus, the homozygous db/db mutant would be able to synthesize the hormone but would not be in a position to respond to it. It would eat excessively and produce large amounts of body fat, which in turn would produce large amounts of appetite-suppressing hormone . In the absence of a receptor, the db/db mutant's hormone level would remain abnormally high. 
Coleman's hypothesis were confirmed when the precise functions of the ob+ and db+ genes were determined. The peptide hormone encoded by the ob+ gene was named Leptin.
