Author response: Preoptic leptin signaling modulates energy balance independent of body temperature regulation
Year: 2018
Type: peer-review
Abstract: The preoptic area (POA) regulates distinct metabolic adaptations, via leptin-dependent (fasting-induced hypometabolism and high-fat-diet-induced hypermetabolism), or leptin-independent mechanisms (temperature induced metabolic changes) and thus significantly contributes to body weight homeostasis.
