title: Dysfunctional hormonal regulation of metabolism in obesity.
abstract: A complex network of hormones from the pancreas, adipose tissue, stomach, intestines and the central nervous system coordinates regulation of metabolism and energy balance. Obesity disrupts this regulatory network. This paper reviews the anorexigenic and orexigenic hormones and their dysfunctional regulation in obesity.
