neurons and brain regions that are activated. In previous research, Dr. Münzberg-Gruening and her team identified that leptin receptors, or Lepr, control the metabolic effects of leptin.

The results found a higher association of the soluble leptin receptor with lower fractional anisotropy, a biomarker of brain white-matter integrity, and peak-width skeletonized mean diffusivity ...

While pharma giants Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly may have a solid hold on the obesity arena, Rhythm Pharmaceuticals is looking ...

"Currently, the only FDA-approved treatment for obesity due to leptin receptor deficiency is a daily injection. PL7737's oral form could provide a more convenient and effective option for these ...

A group of children and adults with hypothalamic obesity receiving setmelanotide for 1 year had nearly a 20% greater BMI reduction than those receiving placebo, according to top-line results released ...

In "Leptin Receptor Neurons in the dorsomedial hypothalamus require distinct neuronal subsets for thermogenesis and weight loss," researchers laid out the pathways, chemicals, neurons and brain ...
