Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to identify how certain parts of the brain that help control body weight respond to an infusion of hormones called leptin and amylin.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Following an overnight fast, subjects will undergo fMRI measurements of the hypothalamus, brainstem and whole brain during an infusion of either normal saline, pramlintide, leptin, or the combination leptin and pramlintide.
