Reviews of Reproduction, 1999
In the few years since leptin was identified as a satiety factor in rodents, it has been implicated in the regulation of various physiological processes. Leptin has been shown to promote sexual maturation in rodent species and a role in reproduction has been investigated at various sites within the hypothalamo-pituitary-gonadal axis.

Immunoassays for Leptin and Leptin Receptors
2006Availability of methods for accurate and reproducible quantification of lepth in various biological fluids in humans and in animals has greatly facilitated research leading to the understanding of its role in various physiological and pathophysiological conditions. Immunoassay techniques provide a simple and robust tool for measurement of biomolecules.

Atherosclerosis, 2006
Leptin, a 167-amino acid peptide hormone produced by white adipose tissue, is primarily involved in the regulation of food intake and energy expenditure. Leptin receptors are expressed in many tissues including the cardiovascular system. Plasma leptin concentration is proportional to body adiposity and is markedly increased in obese individuals. Recent

Leptin, Leptin Receptors, and the Control of Body Weight
Nutrition Reviews, 2009The assimilation, storage, and disposition of nutrient energy constitute a complex homeostatic system central to the survival of both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. In vertebrates, and especially among land dwelling mammalian species, the ability to store large quantities of energy-dense fuel in the form of adipose tissue triglyceride permits ...
