I see that there is a lot of interest recently in the 5-HT2c receptor for weight gain. It seems to help control circulating levels of leptin (the weight-loss hormone). Blocking this receptor reduces levels of leptin, I guess. AP induced weight gain seems to be a complicated thing to understand. I'm not sure it really is at this point.
Any other ideas?
