    The correct answer is "leptin".

    Leptin is a hormone secreted by adipose tissue to signal satiety. This hormone works on the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus where the satiety center is located. Another hormone, ghrelin, works to signal hunger and also works on the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus.
