Therapeutic indications and metabolic effects of metreleptin in patients with lipodystrophy syndromes: Real‐life experience from a national reference network

open access: yesDiabetes, obesity and metabolism, 2022
To describe baseline characteristics and follow‐up data in patients with lipodystrophy syndromes treated with metreleptin in a national reference network, in a real‐life setting.

Genomic loci mispositioning in Tmem120a knockout mice yields latent lipodystrophy

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Little is known about how the observed fat-specific pattern of 3D-spatial genome organisation is established. Here we report that adipocyte-specific knockout of the gene encoding nuclear envelope transmembrane protein Tmem120a disrupts fat genome ...

RIPK3 dampens mitochondrial bioenergetics and lipid droplet dynamics in metabolic liver disease

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
RIPK3 dampens mitochondrial bioenergetics and lipid droplet dynamics in metabolic liver disease. Abstract Background and Aims Receptor‐interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) mediates NAFLD progression, but its metabolic function is unclear. Here, we aimed to investigate the role of RIPK3 in modulating mitochondria function, coupled with lipid droplet (LD)

Approach to the Patient with Lipodystrophy.

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2022
Lipodystrophy constitutes a spectrum of diseases characterized by a generalized or partial absence of adipose tissue. Underscoring the role of healthy fat in maintenance of metabolic homeostasis, fat deficiency in lipodystrophy typically leads to ...

Risk factors for diabetic foot ulcers in metreleptin naïve patients with lipodystrophy

open access: yesClinical Diabetes and Endocrinology, 2021
Aim Patients with lipodystrophy are at high risk for chronic complications of diabetes. Recently, we have reported 18 diabetic foot ulcer episodes in 9 subjects with lipodystrophy.

Effects of Metreleptin on Patient Outcomes and Quality of Life in Generalized and Partial Lipodystrophy.

open access: yesJournal of the Endocrine Society, 2021
Generalized and partial lipodystrophy are rare and complex diseases with progressive clinical and humanistic burdens stemming from selective absence of subcutaneous adipose tissue, which causes reduced energy storage capacity and a deficiency of ...

Genetics of Lipodystrophy [PDF]

open access: yesEndocrinology and Metabolism Clinics of North America, 2017
Lipodystrophy disorders are characterized by selective loss of fat tissue with metabolic complications including insulin resistance, hypertriglyceridemia, and nonalcoholic liver disease. These complications can be life-threatening, affect quality of life, and result in increased health care costs.

Cardiac phenotype in familial partial lipodystrophy

open access: yesClinical Endocrinology, 2021
LMNA variants have been previously associated with cardiac abnormalities independent of lipodystrophy. We aimed to assess cardiac impact of familial partial lipodystrophy (FPLD) to understand the role of laminopathy in cardiac manifestations.

Familial Partial Lipodystrophy (FPLD): Recent Insights

open access: yesDiabetes, Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity : Targets and Therapy, 2020
Lipodystrophies are a heterogeneous group of congenital or acquired disorders, characterized by partial or generalized loss of adipose tissue. Familial partial lipodystrophy (FPLD) presents with genetic and phenotypic variability with insulin resistance,
