Textbook Question
Chapter 46, Problem 2S
Suppose that you wanted to develop a new treatment for obesity based on the hormone leptin. What structures in the body produce leptin? What does it do? Should your treatment cause an increase in blood levels of leptin or a decrease? Could this treatment affect any other systems in the body?
