Ghrelin containing neurons and ghrelin mRNA is detected in the brain, raising the possibly that ghrelin is produced in parts of the brain (Cowley et al., 2003; Lu et al., 2002; Mondal et al., 2005). Ghrelin has been ascribed numerous feeding-related functions, from an increase in food intake and appetite (Egecioglu et al., 2010; Wren et al., 2001; Wren et al., 2001; Wren et al., 2000) to an initiation of meal (Cummings et al., 2001) as well as an enhanced adiposity (Theander-Carrillo et al., 2006; Tschop, Smiley, & Heiman, 2000).
