Assessment of Serum Leptin Level and Insulin Resistance in Obese Subjects
Background: To determine the relationship between serum leptin and insulin resistance in obese Pakistani subjects. Methods: In this observational study fifty healthy obese and overweight subjects were selected by nonprobability convenience sampling. Age,

Leptin therapy, insulin sensitivity, and glucose homeostasis
Glucose homeostasis is closely regulated not only by insulin, but also by leptin. Both hormones act centrally, regulating food intake and adiposity in humans. Leptin has several effects on the glucose-insulin homeostasis, some of which are independent of

Abstract Background The prevalence of insulin dysregulation (ID) has not been investigated in sport horses. Stall‐side insulin assays offer convenience but need further validation. Objectives To determine the prevalence of and risk factors for ID in a sport horse population using an oral sugar test (OST) and assess agreement between stall‐side and ...

The study demonstrates how functional foods, medicinal plants, phytochemicals, bioactive compounds and essential nutrients combat metabolic diseases. It highlights their mechanisms, including antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, insulin‐sensitising, lipid‐regulating, gut microbiota‐modulating and mitochondrial‐enhancing effects, leading to improved ...

Correlation Analysis of Body Weight with Insulin Resistance and Leptin Levels in Farm Workers
Insulin resistance is a pathological condition resulting from impaired insulin response which causes increased insulin production as a form of compensation from pancreatic beta cells. A stable body weight can prevent insulin resistance and excessive body

Selective leptin resistance revisited
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.

LEPTIN AND OBESITY – NEUROENDOCRINE , METABOLIC AND ATHEROGENIC EFFECTS OF LEPTIN
Background. Leptin is an adipocyte-derived hormone that was recently discovered. Leptin and leptin resistance play an important role in the pathogenesis of obesity.

Association of Leptin With Obesity and Insulin Resistance
Introduction Leptin, a hormone released by the body to regulate energy balance by inhibiting hunger, decreases fat storage in adipocytes. Leptin is thought to play some role in obesity and insulin resistance. In this study, our aim is to see the association of leptin with obesity and insulin resistance.
