Leptin, molecular model
Leptin, molecular model. This hormone is produced by adipose (fat) tissue. It interacts with receptors in the brains hypothalamus to signal when a person is full. It also circulates in the blood at levels proportionate to body fat, which allows the brain to regulate appetite and metabolism

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate molecular model of Leptin, a hormone produced by adipose tissue (fat). Against a striking black background, this artful representation highlights the significance of Leptin in our biology and health. The close-up view allows us to appreciate the detailed bonds and colors that make up this essential regulator. Leptin plays a crucial role in signaling satiety to our brains. By interacting with receptors in the hypothalamus, it informs us when we are full, helping to regulate appetite and metabolism. Additionally, its presence in the bloodstream is directly proportional to body fat levels, enabling our brain to effectively manage both hunger and energy expenditure. With its round shape and chemical composition beautifully depicted here, this artwork serves as a reminder of the vital connection between human biology and hormones like Leptin. It symbolizes ongoing research efforts within medicine, chemistry, and biology fields aimed at unraveling the complexities of our bodies' regulatory systems. As an illustration image from Science Photo Library's extensive collection on human health and biomedical sciences, this print offers both aesthetic appeal and scientific insight into one of nature's incredible mechanisms for maintaining balance within ourselves.
