Assessment of Serum Leptin Level and Insulin Resistance in Obese Subjects

open access: yesJournal of Rawalpindi Medical College, 2012
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

open access: yesIndian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2012
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

Prevalence of insulin dysregulation in a sport horse population as determined by traditional and stall‐side testing

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
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 ...

Nutrition and Metabolic Diseases: A Systematic Review of Functional Foods, Medicinal Plants, Phytochemicals, Bioactive Compounds and Nutrients Effective Against Metabolic Diseases

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
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

open access: yesJournal of Agromedicine and Medical Sciences (AMS)
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

open access: yesAmerican 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.

Rewiring nutrition: Chemical insights into the physiological and microbiological roles of food's microconstituents

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Bidirectional interactions between food‐derived sensory compounds, gut sensing and microbiota, host physiological feedback, and metabolite production within the food matrix collectively shape sensory perception, microbial dynamics, and metabolic health.

Syncing Health Timing: Exploring the Interplay of Circadian Rhythms, Obesity, and Cardiovascular Diseases

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Circadian rhythm disruption impairs metabolic regulation, appetite control, and vascular function, promoting obesity and cardiovascular diseases. Evidence highlights a bidirectional relationship where metabolic disorders further disturb circadian timing.

LEPTIN AND OBESITY – NEUROENDOCRINE , METABOLIC AND ATHEROGENIC EFFECTS OF LEPTIN

open access: yesZdravniški Vestnik, 2003
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

open access: yesCureus, 2020
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.
