Leptin receptor molecule F006 / 9736
Leptin receptor. Molecular model of a leptin receptor complexed with an antibody. Leptin is a hormone 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 structure of the Leptin receptor molecule F006 / 9736. The image depicts a detailed model of a leptin receptor complexed with an antibody, providing valuable insights into the biological mechanisms behind appetite regulation and weight management. Leptin, a hormone produced by adipose tissue (fat), plays a crucial role in signaling satiety to our brains. By interacting with receptors in the hypothalamus, leptin informs us when we are full and helps regulate our metabolism. Its levels in the blood correspond to body fat, enabling our brain to effectively control appetite and metabolic processes. The white background emphasizes the elegance of this molecular artwork while drawing attention to its scientific significance. The alpha helix and beta sheet structures beautifully illustrate how proteins fold into their tertiary configurations, further enhancing our understanding of biochemical interactions within our bodies. This medical illustration holds immense value for research and medicine alike. It sheds light on obesity-related issues by highlighting the importance of leptin receptors as potential targets for therapeutic interventions. With its precise cutouts and meticulous detailing, this image is an invaluable resource for proteomics studies focused on weight regulation. Captured by LAGUNA DESIGN/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY, this print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a scientific marvel that deepens our comprehension of vital physiological processes related to appetite control and obesity prevention.
