Leptin attenuates D(2) receptor‐mediated inhibition of putative ventral tegmental area dopaminergic neurons

Obesity causes hyperleptinemia. We have previously shown that D(2) receptor‐mediated inhibition of ventral tegmental area (VTA) dopaminergic neurons is attenuated in diet‐induced mice with obesity. Consequently, we hypothesized that high concentrations of serum leptin during obesity might modulate D...
