Leptin: A hormone predominantly produced in adipose tissue that is a key mediator of long-term regulation of food intake and body weight and inhibits hunger.
Ghrelin: A hormone secreted by the stomach that stimulates appetite. Levels increase during fasting states and decrease after intake of food.
Both work for fat regulation and appetite control.
