Lean ZSF1 rats in basic research on heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1474-1478, April 2025.
Abstract Aims ZSF1 obese rats harbouring two mutant leptin receptor alleles (Leprcp and Leprfa) develop metabolic syndrome and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), making them a widely used animal model in cardiometabolic research.

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.

Leptin Signaling and Action in Birds

The Journal of Poultry Science, 2008
The discovery of leptin has led to an understanding of the regulation of energy expenditure and food intake in a number of vertebrates. Leptin is also implicated in diverse physiological functions.

Role of GABA release from leptin receptor-expressing neurons in body weight regulation.

Endocrinology, 2012
It is well established that leptin regulates energy balance largely through isoform B leptin receptor-expressing neurons (LepR neurons) in the brain and that leptin activates one subset of LepR neurons (leptin-excited neurons) while inhibiting the other (

Semaglutide normalizes increased cardiomyocyte calcium transients in a rat model of high fat diet‐induced obesity

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1386-1397, April 2025.
Sequeira et al. reveal how the glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonist (GLP‐1‐RA) semaglutide restores cardiomyocyte function in rats subjected to a high‐fat/high‐fructose diet (HFD). Employing fluorescence‐ and patch‐clamp technology in isolated cardiac myocytes, they demonstrate that semaglutide reverses HFD‐induced activation of L‐type calcium ...

Heart failure and obesity: Translational approaches and therapeutic perspectives. A scientific statement of the Heart Failure Association of the ESC

European Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Obesity and heart failure (HF) represent two growing pandemics. In the general population, obesity affects one in eight adults and is linked with an increased risk for HF. Obesity is even more common in patients with HF, where it complicates the diagnosis of HF and is linked with worse symptoms and impaired exercise capacity. Over the past few

The crosstalk between immune activation and metabolism in heart failure. A scientific statement of the Heart Failure Association of the ESC

European Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract A better understanding of additional mechanisms of heart failure (HF) progression may allow a different and more complete phenotyping of the disease and identification of novel therapeutic targets. Persistent latent myocardial inflammation/immune activation in HF may represent an attempt to restore tissue homeostasis in the failing heart ...

Obesity, Fat Mass and Immune System: Role for Leptin

Frontiers in Physiology, 2018
Obesity is an epidemic disease characterized by chronic low-grade inflammation associated with a dysfunctional fat mass. Adipose tissue is now considered an extremely active endocrine organ that secretes cytokine-like hormones, called adipokines, either ...

The Efficacy of Pharmacological Treatment of Depression in Anorexia Nervosa and Underweight Patients: A Systematic Review

European Eating Disorders Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a frequent comorbidity in anorexia nervosa (AN). This review aimed to evaluate evidence on the effectiveness of pharmacological treatments for MDD in underweight individuals. Method A systematic review was conducted using PubMed, Medline, PsycINFO, and Web of Science through March 2025.
