Type2 diabetic patients often become resistant to insulin effects leading to high amount of it to get assembled in the body.
A recent study reported a hormone that can help to get over the high amount of insulin production in the body.
An appetite controlling hormone called leptin helps in maintaining the body from producing high amount of insulin.
Trials were conducted on mice till the time by injecting a gene in diabetic mice’s brains in order to increase the production of appetite controlling hormone leptin in hypothalamus and found that mice even after getting high-fat diet returned in normal position against the fact that high-fat promotes the worsening of Type2 diabetes.
Yet, it is not verified whether leptin action in hypothalamus is responsible for controlling the emission of insulin or not.
No doubt, the finding proves to be a noteworthy piece of work but requires further research to be done to get a clear-cut proof of leptin’s performance in controlling insulin.
However, no trials conducted on humans, so diabetics need to wait until the findings may get some appropriate direction of treatment.
