Role of leptin and leptin receptor in inflammation
American Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology, 2003 on october 30th, 2002, the World Health Report by the World Health Organization was launched subtitled Reducing risks, promoting healthy life . Many of the health risks discussed in this report concern food consumption—either too little, in the case of the poor, or too much, in the case of ...

Leptin and leptin resistance in obesity: current evidence, mechanisms and future directions
Endocrine ConnectionsLeptin, a key adipokine regulating energy homeostasis, has been extensively studied for its potential in the management of obesity. However, its therapeutic efficacy is often limited due to leptin resistance.

Relevance of Serum Leptin and Leptin-Receptor Concentrations in Critically Ill Patients
Mediators of Inflammation, 2010 The adipocyte-derived cytokine leptin was implicated to link inflammation and metabolic alterations. We investigated the potential role of leptin components in critically ill patients, because systemic inflammation, insulin resistance, and hyperglycemia ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Particulate matter ≤2.5 µm (PM2.5) elevates risks of neurological and chronic metabolic diseases, but the underlying mechanisms linking PM2.5‐induced central nervous system (CNS) injury to metabolic dysfunction remain unclear. Hypothalamic pro‐opiomelanocortin‐expressing (POMC+) neurons regulate systemic metabolic homeostasis, and tripartite motif ...

Leptin and Leptin Receptor Expression in Breast Cancer [PDF]
Cancer Research and Treatment, 2009 Leptin is a multifunctional hormone that's produced by adipose tissue and leptin is involved in the regulation of food intake and energy balance. The aims of this study were to determine the leptin and leptin receptor (Ob-R) expressions in human breast cancer and their corresponding influence on the prognosis of patients with breast cancer.We examined ...

Melanocortin receptors in leptin effects [PDF]
Nature, 1997 Leptin acts on the central nervous system to cause a reduction in food intake and body weight1,2. The melanocortin system in the brain is also implicated in energy homeostasis, with agonists of the melanocortin-4 (MC4) receptor reducing food intake3 and targeted mutation of the MC4 receptor causing obesity4.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Exclusive breastfeeding establishes a thermogenic memory in brown adipose tissue by activating the HIF1AN/AMPK/α‐ketoglutarate axis via milk‐derived extracellular vesicles enriched in miR‐125a‐5p. This programming preserves metabolic health, while αKG supplementation restores BAT function under mixed feeding, offering strategies to mitigate the ...
