Message definition (Adipose tissue)
In 1995, [[Jeffrey M. Friedman|Jeffrey Friedman]], in his residency at the [[Rockefeller University]], together with [[Rudolph Leibel]], [[Douglas Coleman]] et al. discovered the protein [[leptin]] that the genetically obese mouse lacked. Leptin is produced in the white adipose tissue and signals to the [[hypothalamus]]. When leptin levels drop, the body interprets this as a loss of energy, and hunger increases. Mice lacking this protein eat until they are four times their normal size.
