Exploring metabolic dysfunction in chronic kidney disease [PDF]
, 2012 Impaired kidney function and chronic kidney disease (CKD) leading to kidney failure and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is a serious medical condition associated with increased morbidity, mortality, and in particular cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk ...

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.This schematic figure illustrates the experimental design and key findings of the study. Forty male C57BL/6 mice were assigned to either a standard diet control group or a cafeteria diet (CAFD) group for 16 weeks. CAFD induces obesity, insulin resistance (HOMA‐IR), hepatic steatosis, and dysregulation of a number of genes in visceral and subcutaneous ...

Leptin and Its Emerging Role in Children and Adolescents [PDF]
, 2014 Leptin is an adipocyte-secreted hormone which plays a key role in energy homeostasis. Recent “proof of concept” studies involving leptin administration to humans support its critical role in regulating energy homeostasis, neuroendocrine and immune ...

Selective leptin resistance revisited
American Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology, 2013 In addition to effects on appetite and metabolism, leptin influences many neuroendocrine and physiological systems, including the sympathetic nervous system. Building on my Carl Ludwig Lecture of the American Physiological Society, I review the sympathetic and cardiovascular actions of leptin.

Physiological Models of Leptin Resistance [PDF]
Journal of Neuroendocrinology, 2009 In common forms of obesity, animals and humans become leptin resistant associated with impaired regulation of energy homeostasis. Over the last decade, significant advances in delineating the underlying mechanisms have been achieved. As well as the obvious scientific progress obtained by novel transgenic animals, natural and physiological models of ...

The spleen: a hub connecting nervous and immune systems in cardiovascular and metabolic diseases [PDF]
, 2017 Metabolic disorders have been identified as major health problems affecting a large portion of the world population. In addition, obesity and insulin resistance are principal risk factors for the development of cardiovascular diseases.
