Abstract
⺠Ghrelin impacts on a wide range of food reward behaviors. ⺠Ghrelin also plays a role in alcohol and drug reward. ⺠Ghrelin interacts with dopamine to alter food reward. ⺠Neurotransmitters other than DA are also likely involved in reward effects of ghrelin. ⺠Widely distributed neurocircuitry likely contributes to ghrelin's food reward effect.
