Leptin

The Lancet, 1998
Leptin (from the Greek leptos=thin) was identified only 3 years ago. It has attracted huge attention both scientifically, with more than 600 publications, and in the media, where this protein has been portrayed as the way to a cure for obesity. Indeed, leptin was first described as an adipocyte-derived signalling factor, which, after interaction with ...

"Eczemas" and leptin.

Dermatitis : contact, atopic, occupational, drug, 2011
Leptin belongs to the helical cytokine family and has structural similarity to interleukin (IL)-6, IL-12, IL-15, prolactin, and growth hormone. It is mainly secreted by adipocytes but (at lower levels) also by stomach, skeletal muscle, and placenta.

Leptin as an immunomodulator

Molecular Aspects of Medicine, 2012
Leptin is an adipocyte-derived hormone/cytokine that links nutritional status with neuroendocrine and immune functions. In humans, leptin influences energy homeostasis and regulates neuroendocrine function primarily in states of energy deficiency. Initially described as an antiobesity hormone, leptin has subsequently been shown also to influence basal ...

Leptin

The Netherlands Journal of Medicine, 1996
A highly conserved protein called 'leptin' was recently discovered to play a role in regulation of the energy balance in humans and rodents. This 167-amino-acid-containing protein is only produced and secreted by mature adipocytes. Absence of the protein in mutant ob/ob mice and resistance to its effects in db/db mice lead to extreme obesity and type ...

Leptin and Undernutrition

Nutrition Reviews, 2002
it is certainly a major player. Priorexperience with hormonal signals such as insulin sug-gested that leptin would have pleiotropic actions invarious end organs and that its signals would be inte-grated into a complicated system of checks and balancesinvolving other hormones and neural pathways. Thesepredictions have turned out to be true,
