Abstract: The adipocyte-derived hormone leptin acts at leptin receptor (LepR)-expressing neurons in the brain to regulate metabolic and cardiovascular functions. LepR neurons in the dorsomedial hypothalamus (DMH) are required for leptin-induced feeding suppression, regulate brown adipose… read more here.
