Abstract Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is characterized by a lack of a specific targeted treatment and a complex, partially unexplored pathophysiology. Common comorbidities associated with HFpEF are hypertension, atrial fibrillation, obesity and diabetes.

Plasma leptin levels on PND7 (A) and on PND90 (B); peripheral leptin sensitivity challenge (intake changes in grams, 4, 20 & 24 hours after peripheral leptin injection (2 mg/kg) (normalized to intake after saline injection)) (C); protein levels for the ...

Lean ZSF1 rats in basic research on heart failure with preserved ejection fraction
Abstract Aims ZSF1 obese rats harbouring two mutant leptin receptor alleles (Leprcp and Leprfa) develop metabolic syndrome and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), making them a widely used animal model in cardiometabolic research.

Estimation of Leptin and Leptin Receptor Concentrations in Seminal Plasma of Primary Infertile Men
Background: There are many sources for Leptin secretion, and it is activated by binding with its receptor known as leptin receptor, that play a role in male infertility.

Sequeira et al. reveal how the glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonist (GLP‐1‐RA) semaglutide restores cardiomyocyte function in rats subjected to a high‐fat/high‐fructose diet (HFD). Employing fluorescence‐ and patch‐clamp technology in isolated cardiac myocytes, they demonstrate that semaglutide reverses HFD‐induced activation of L‐type calcium ...

Insulin and Leptin Signaling Interact in the Mouse Kiss1 Neuron during the Peripubertal Period.
Reproduction requires adequate energy stores for parents and offspring to survive. Kiss1 neurons, which are essential for fertility, have the potential to serve as the central sensors of metabolic factors that signal to the reproductive axis the presence

Ketogenic diet for infantile epileptic spasms
Abstract Approximately half of all cases of Infantile Epileptic Spasms Syndrome (IESS) do not respond to vigabatrin and hormonal therapies. There is no clear consensus as to the second‐line therapy for IESS. Ketogenic diet (KD) has emerged as an effective treatment for certain drug‐resistant epilepsies and in many cases of IESS.

A molecular overview of leptin in several pathological conditions
Leptin is a 16 kDa peptide hormone that is the product of LEP (also known as OB) gene. The Leptin gene is primarily expressed in white adipocytes. Although the leptin hormone is mainly associated with the regulation of body weight and energy expenditure ...
