Leptin resistance after heart transplantation [PDF]
European Journal of Heart Failure, 2010 Cardiac cachexia occurs in severe heart failure (HF).1,2 Heart transplantation (HTx) is associated with weight gain and the frequent development of obesity. Although this weight gain has been attributed to glucocorticoid therapy, it is more dramatic than after other solid organ transplants, despite similar steroid regimens, and also unrelated to ...

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022 Graphical summary of obesity‐induced NASH progression by LCN2 targeted to HSC activation. Abstract Background and Aims In obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus, leptin promotes insulin resistance and contributes to the progression of NASH via activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs).

Leptin receptor signaling: pathways to leptin resistance
Frontiers 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 the brain about the body's energy status.

The role of leptin resistance in the development of thyroid neoplasia
Mìžnarodnij Endokrinologìčnij Žurnal, 2023 Background. Leptin influences energy metabolism, as it is able to inform the central nervous system about adipose tissue reserves, and is also an important neuroendocrine regulator.

Increased Serum Leptin Indicates Leptin Resistance in Obesity [PDF]
Clinical Chemistry, 2011 Featured Article: Considine RV, Sinha MK, Heiman ML, Kriauciunas A, Stephens TW, Nyce MR, et al. Serum immunoreactive-leptin concentrations in normal-weight and obese humans. N Engl J Med 1996;334:292–5.2 This study was done at a very exciting time in the field of obesity research. Jeffrey Friedman's group had published the landmark report in December

Acute leptin deficiency, leptin resistance, and the physiologic response to leptin withdrawal [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2005 Food restriction and weight loss result in reduced plasma leptin, which is associated with a pleiotropic biologic response. However, because weight loss itself is also associated with changes in numerous other humoral and metabolic signals, it can be difficult to determine the precise features of the biologic response to acute leptin deficiency.

Association of 25 (OH) Vitamin D and leptin in individuals with insulin resistance
Indian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2022 Introduction: Asian-Indian individuals with diabetes have been shown to have low vitamin D levels. Whether this hypovitamonisis D is associated with hyperleptinaemia is unclear.

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Representation of the suggested mode of action of lactoferrin (Lf) in nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) A549 cells. Lf induces activation of caspase‐3 by activating p53 and AChE leading to decreased ACh concentrations. In turn, ACh signaling leads to activation of VEGF and AKT and blocking of caspase‐3.
