Scientists had sought continued study of the 9,320 to 9,510 year old skeleton, which is housed at the Burke Museum in Seattle, a dispute now likely to proceed in court.

Leptin May Suppress Sugar Cravings in Mice
Japanese researchers from Asahi University Kyushu University and government labs show leptin injected in mice reduces response to sweet tastes while not affecting salty sour or bitter stimuli. Diabetic obese mice with leptin defects do not show this effect, suggesting leptin acts on taste cells as a peripheral sweet-sensing suppressor influencing food intake.
