Supplementary information

Leptin is a hormone that regulates energy balance, appetite, and body weight. It is primarily produced by adipose (fat) tissue and acts as a signal to the brain to indicate the body’s energy storage status.

Leptin circulates in the bloodstream and binds to leptin receptors (LEPR) in the hypothalamus, a brain region that controls hunger and metabolism. When body fat increases, leptin levels rise and signal the brain to reduce appetite and increase energy expenditure. Through this mechanism, leptin helps maintain long-term body weight homeostasis by linking fat storage to appetite control. In addition to regulating food intake, leptin also influences glucose metabolism, immune function, and reproductive physiology.
