1 Glucose regulates the effects of leptin on hypothalamic POMC neurons. Glucose proopiomelanocortin Homo sapiens
2 We show here that at 11 mM glucose leptin excites POMC cells. Glucose proopiomelanocortin Homo sapiens
3 However, at high glucose concentrations (11 mM), activation of POMC cells may contribute to the appetite-suppressing effects of leptin. Glucose proopiomelanocortin Homo sapiens
