FGF21 and obesity disorder: Interestingly, recent studies have shown that FGF21 is produced and secreted in hypothalamic tanycytes [89,90] and activates GABA-containing neurons expressing dopamine receptor 2 (DRd2) in the LHA, that in turn, has been shown to be part of the molecular pathway of the protective effect of prolonged lactation on obesity [90] (Figure 3).
