Researchers map out the relationship between receptors and ligands.
Researchers debate the roles of the gut and brain hormones play in regulating appetite and metabolism.
Researchers report hundreds of genes that affect neurological function can be damaged by fructose. However, it may be possible to reverse some of the changes by adopting a diet rich in DHA.
A variant of the CHC22 gene evolved to help people adapt to the modern, higher sugar diet. However, many people still retain the older version of the genetic variant, which does not allow for correct metabolism of modern diets and may be linked to an increased risk of developing diabetes.

Researchers believe they might have identified a new abnormality in the relationship between dopamine and response to food in those with obesity.
Researchers report two consecutive nights of extended sleep may counteract the increased risk of diabetes associated with sleep loss.
A new study reports people with insulin resistance, a feature common in type 2 diabetes, can increase the risk for developing Alzheimer's disease.
The absence of a specific type of neuron in the brain can lead to obesity and diabetes in mice report researchers. The outcome, however, depends on the type of diet that the animals are fed.
A new study reports high fat diets can impair the function of the mesolimbic dopamine system.
