Leptin resistance and obesity [PDF]

open access: yesObesity, 2006
The prevalence of obesity, and the human and economic costs of the disease, creates a need for better therapeutics and better understanding of the physiological processes that balance energy intake and energy expenditure.

Hyperleptinemia is required for the development of leptin resistance. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Leptin regulates body weight by signaling to the brain the availability of energy stored as fat. This negative feedback loop becomes disrupted in most obese individuals, resulting in a state known as leptin resistance.

Leptin receptor action and mechanisms of leptin resistance [PDF]

open access: yesCellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2005
The adipose tissue-derived hormone leptin regulates energy balance and neuroendocrine function. Resistance to the appetite-suppressing effects of leptin is associated with common forms of obesity.

PATHOGENETIC MECHANISMS OF LEPTIN RESISTANCE [PDF]

open access: yesРоссийский кардиологический журнал, 2015
Leptin is a regulatory protein from adipokines family, that maintain energy homeostasis of the body and deter obesity development. Impaired transfer of leptin signals to hypothalamus leads to leptin resistance and its adverse complications. Understanding

Leptin receptor signaling: pathways to leptin resistance

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience, 2011
The identification of spontaneous mutations in the leptin- and leptin receptor (ObR)-encoding ob and db gene, respectively, opened up a new field in obesity research. Leptin, an adipocyte-derived hormone, mirrors the body's fat stores and thereby informs

Drug targeting of leptin resistance

open access: yesLife Sciences, 2015
Leptin regulates glucose, lipid and energy homeostasis as well as feeding behavior, serving as a bridge between peripheral metabolically active tissues and the central nervous system (CNS). Indeed, this adipocyte-derived hormone, whose circulating levels

Leptin and leptin resistance in obesity: current evidence, mechanisms and future directions. [PDF]

open access: yesEndocr Connect
Leptin, 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.

Hippocampal Leptin Resistance and Cognitive Decline: Mechanisms, Therapeutic Strategies and Clinical Implications. [PDF]

open access: yesBiomedicines
Background: Leptin, an adipokine essential for regulating energy balance, exerts important effects on brain function, notably within the hippocampus, a region integral to learning and memory.
