AN ECONOMIC ANALYSIS OF GENETIC INFORMATION: LEPTIN GENOTYPING IN FED CATTLE [PDF]

The use of genetic knowledge is widespread in crop production but is just recently being utilized in livestock production. This study investigates the economic value to feedlots of a polymorphism in the bovine leptin gene.

The role of leptin as a biochemical marker in health and disease

, 2023
Leptin is a hormone primarily produced by adipose tissue (fat cells) and is critical in regulating energy balance and metabolism (Martinez-Sanchez 2020; Abella et al. 2017).

Determinants of fetal leptin synthesis, fat mass, and circulating leptin concentrations in well-nourished ewes in late pregnancy

, 2003
Copyright © 2003 by The Endocrine SocietyWe have investigated the factors regulating leptin synthesis, fat deposition, and circulating leptin concentrations in fetuses of well nourished ewes in late pregnancy.

Long-duration leptin transgene expression in dorsal vagal complex does not alter bone parameters in female Sprague Dawley rats

Bone Reports
The hypothalamus and dorsal vagal complex (DVC) are both important for integration of signals that regulate energy balance. Increased leptin transgene expression in either the hypothalamus or DVC of female rats was shown to decrease white adipose tissue ...

The Effects of Leptin Replacement on Neural Plasticity

Neural Plasticity, 2016
Leptin, an adipokine synthesized and secreted mainly by the adipose tissue, has multiple effects on the regulation of food intake, energy expenditure, and metabolism.

Leptin acts on neoplastic behavior and expression levels of genes related to hypoxia, angiogenesis, and invasiveness in oral squamous cell carcinoma

Tumor Biology, 2017
Leptin, one of the main hormones controlling energy homeostasis, has been associated with different cancer types. In oral cancer, its effect is not well understood.

New‐Onset Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Cancer Risk: A Matched Cohort Study in China Kadoorie Biobank

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is rising rapidly in China and is linked to increased cancer risk, but causality remains unclear due to biases. We examined the causal effect of T2DM on cancer risk using bias‐minimizing methods.

Maternal overweight and obesity during pregnancy and sex‐dependent dysregulation of the materno‐fetal stress axis

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Maternal obesity and excess gestational weight gain (GWG) are linked to adverse perinatal outcomes, potentially via disruption of the maternal–fetal stress axis. Placental HSD11B2 protects the fetus from excess glucocorticoids and may influence fetal programming during maternal metabolic stress.
