INS and Obesity: Notably, the OBs have a high density of insulin and leptin receptors (Havrankova et al., 1981; Baskin et al., 1983; Marks et al., 1990; Thanarajah et al., 2019), hormones that are elevated in obesity and involved in homeostatic signaling (Murphy and Bloom, 2006; Durham, 2016; Lean and Malkova, 2016) as well as in modulating odor sensitivity (Tong et al., 2011; Brunner et al., 2013).
