Leptin Now Directly Linked to the Pleasure of Food & Human Behavior

Researchers at the University of Michigan are the first to document a new leptin pathway in the brain – one related to the pleasure of eating. They found leptin receptors in a part of the hypothalamus gland that directly influences the production of dopamine, in turn influencing basic mechanism of human behavior behind the desire to acquire, pleasure, and the sense of reward. While this mechanism certainly applies to food – it is a key factor that drives all sorts of human behaviors (both good and bad).
