<unk>  is a neuropeptide produced in the hypothalamus of mammals. It participates in the regulation of hunger and fat storage. Increased<unk>  in the hypothalamus contributes to diminished hunger, a 'sense of fullness', and a potential loss of body fat and weight. A study of metabolic effects of<unk>  in rats have been done in which subjects administered<unk>  ate less, used more stored fat and became more active.<unk> -induced inhibition of feeding may be mediated through the inhibition of orexigenic neurons. In addition, the protein stimulated insulin secretion from the pancreatic beta cells of both rats and mice.
