Pharmacological but not physiological GDF15 suppresses feeding and the motivation to exercise
The physiological role of GDF15 remains poorly defined. Here, the authors show that circulating GDF15 increases in response to prolonged exercise, but that this exercise-induced GDF15, unlike pharmacological GDF15, does not affect post-exercise food intake or exercise motivation.
