New research has shown that some neurons that do not express leptin receptors are still sensitive to its activity.

Moreover, optogenetics and single sensillum recordings provide evidence that IR25a co-receptor might modulate the activity of typical Orco-dependent olfactory sensory neurons. The authors also provide ...
