Comment
Leptin treatment decreased dopamine concentrations significantly in the paraventricular nucleus.
Serotonin (5-HT) concentration decreased significantly in the paraventricular nucleus after both intraperitoneal and intracerebroventricular injections of leptin and decreased in the ventromedial hypothalamus only with intracerebroventricular treatment of leptin.
