Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Steatotic Liver Disease and Obesity: Pathogenesis, Diagnostics, Risk Stratification, and Therapeutic Approach

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) has emerged as the most prevalent chronic liver disease worldwide, closely linked to the global rising incidence of obesity and metabolic syndrome. This review synthesizes current evidence on the pathogenesis, gut–liver axis, and multidisciplinary management of MASLD within the ...

Study of Serum Leptin in Well-differentiated Thyroid Carcinoma: Correlation with Patient and Tumor Characteristics

open access: yes, 2014
Background There is a proven relationship between obesity and several cancers including breast, endometrium, colorectal, and esophagus. With the increasing incidence of both obesity and thyroid cancer, we designed the present study to investigate a ...

The Role of Dietary Components in Leptin Resistance [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Nutrition, 2012
Leptin resistance has been defined as reduced or absent responsiveness to the feeding and body weight inhibitory effects of the hormone in obese individuals compared with normal (lean) controls. Classically, leptin resistance has been associated with increased body fat and circulating leptin levels, and the effect is thought to contribute to the ...

Osteoarthritis: An Immuno‐Inflammatory Disease‐Mechanisms of Immune Cell Dysregulation and Potential Therapeutic Strategies

open access: yesMed Research, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the immuno‐inflammatory mechanisms driving the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis (OA), extending beyond the traditional view of OA as a purely degenerative disease to incorporate immune cell infiltration, inflammatory factor release, and the formation of a chronic low‐grade inflammatory microenvironment.

Insulin resistance and adipokine levels correlate with early atherosclerosis – a study in prediabetic patients

open access: yesOpen Medicine, 2014
Cardiovascular risk of prediabetes is still subject to controversies. We analyzed the associations between insulin resistance, adipokines and incipient atherosclerosis estimated by intima-media thickness (IMT) in a cross-sectional study on 122 ...

Influence of leptin on arterial distensibility - A novel link between obesity and cardiovascular disease?

open access: yes, 2002
Background-The mechanisms by which obesity increases the risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD) are poorly understood. In experimental models, leptin, a hormone produced by adipose tissue, has been shown adversely to affect vascular health.

When the Scale Drops: Pathways to Weight Loss in Parkinson's Disease and Future Directions

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Although Parkinson's disease (PD) is classically defined by its motor features, non‐motor symptoms exert a substantial and often under‐recognized influence on disease trajectory. Among these, weight loss has long been observed in PD and other neurodegenerative disorders, yet the mechanisms remain incompletely understood.

Model of homocysteine-induced leptin resistance.

open access: yes, 2022
High concentrations of homocysteine trigger ER stress and inhibit the phosphorylation and transcriptional activity of STAT3 regulated by the anti-obesity hormone leptin.

Effectiveness and Safety of Setmelanotide in a Patient With a Heterozygous PCSK1 Deficiency

open access: yesObesity, 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 Lipid Droplet–Associated Hydrolase Is Associated With Obesity and Adipose Tissue Inflammation in Children

open access: yesObesity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The lipid droplet–associated hydrolase (LDAH) is a lipid droplet–associated protein with an uncharacterized role in human adipose tissue (AT) and obesity; we aimed to investigate its role in human AT and its relevance for childhood obesity.
