Inflammation, Immunity, and Cardiovascular Diseases
Med Research, EarlyView.Cardiovascular stress signals (e.g., hemodynamic shear, oxidized lipids, and ischemia) act on endothelial and immune cells to activate and amplify inflammation through NF‐κB, the NLRP3 inflammasome, and JAK/STAT signaling, inducing proinflammatory cytokines/chemokines (IL‐6, IL‐1β, TNF‐α, and CCL2) and self‐amplifying circuits; clinically, inflammatory

[Leptin, leptin gene, leptin gene receptor polymorphisms and pregnancy].
Ginekologia polska, 2008 The article presents information about leptin as the major metabolic hormone. The structure, localization of the hormone and its receptor have been described focusing on maturation and fertility processes. Several polymorphisms of leptin gene and its receptor have been described as potential developmental factors of pregnancy complications such as ...

Effectiveness and Safety of Setmelanotide in a Patient With a Heterozygous PCSK1 Deficiency
Obesity, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Setmelanotide, a melanocortin 4 receptor (MC4R) agonist, is a promising pharmacological treatment option for people with rare monogenic obesity conditions affecting the leptin‐melanocortin signaling pathway, including proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 1 (PCSK1) gene mutations.

The Plasma Free Fatty Acid Carrier Proteome is Altered in Diet‐Induced and Genetically Obese Mice
Obesity, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective We aimed to examine the effect of obesity on the plasma free fatty acid (FFA) carrier proteome in mice. Methods From 6 to 20 weeks of age, male and female C57BL/6J wild‐type mice were fed either a low‐fat diet (10% of kilocalories from fat) or a high‐fat diet (60% of kilocalories from fat), and leptin‐deficient ob/ob mice were fed a ...

Pediatric Investigation, EarlyView.Monogenic and syndromic obesity in children often arises from defects in the leptin–melanocortin pathway. Understanding these rare genetic causes not only clarifies mechanisms of appetite regulation but also enables precision therapies, offering hope beyond lifestyle interventions.

Monitoring serum insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I), IGF binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3), IGF-I/IGFBP-3 molar ratio and leptin during growth hormone treatment for disordered growth [PDF]
, 2000 OBJECTIVE: Serum IGF-I levels are monitored during GH replacement treatment in adults with GH defi- ciency (GHD) to guide GH dose adjustment and to minimize occurrence of GH-related side-effects.

Pediatric Investigation, EarlyView.This evidence map of 63 studies (n = 6158) showed growth hormone therapy in children with growth hormone deficiency has neutral glucose effects, mixed lipid outcomes, potential benefits for bone mineral density, bone mineral content, and parathyroid hormone, but generally no impact on thyroid function, body composition, or body mass index.

The effects of leptin on human cytotrophoblast invasion are gestational age and dose-dependent
Frontiers in EndocrinologyIntroductionLeptin and its receptors are expressed by the human placenta throughout gestation, yet the role of leptin in early human placental development is not well characterized.

Sleep Research, EarlyView.Abstract The bidirectional interplay between sleep and metabolic homeostasis is fundamental to physiological health. While the roles of glucose and lipid metabolism in sleep regulation have been extensively characterized, bile acids (BAs), which are traditionally viewed as digestive surfactants, are emerging as critical metabolic messengers with ...
