Product Information

• Description: Leptin is a hormone that regulates energy metabolism by modulating appetite and body weight. Leptin is produced by fat cells and signals to the hypothalamus of the brain about how much fat tissue there is. It also helps regulate other metabolic processes, such as insulin resistance and glucose tolerance. Leptin has been shown to have an anorectic effect in rodents, which may be due to its ability to reduce food intake or increase energy expenditure. In humans, leptin levels are higher in obese individuals than in those with normal weight, which indicates that this hormone may play a role in obesity.
