The role of insulin receptor substrate 2 in hypothalamic and β cell function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Insulin receptor substrate 2 (Irs2) plays complex roles in energy homeostasis. We generated mice lacking Irs2 in β cells and a population of hypothalamic neurons (RIPCreIrs2KO), in all neurons (NesCreIrs2KO), and in proopiomelanocortin neurons ...

The glucoregulatory actions of leptin

open access: yesMolecular Metabolism, 2017
Background: The hormone leptin is an important regulator of metabolic homeostasis, able to inhibit food intake and increase energy expenditure. Leptin can also independently lower blood glucose levels, particularly in hyperglycemic models of leptin or ...

The physiological and pathophysiological role of leptin in neurological and behavioral disorders [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Many factors can impact behavioral problems, including genetic, physiological, structural, and psychological factors. The genesis of behavioral disorders is influenced by several elements as a result of this complicated relationship. Because hormones are

Leptin and leptin receptors.

open access: yes, 2013
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 ...

Leptin as a critical regulator of hepatocellular carcinoma development through modulation of human telomerase reverse transcriptase

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2010
Background Numerous epidemiological studies have documented that obesity is associated with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The aim of this study was to investigate the biological actions regulated by leptin, the obesity biomarker molecule, and its ...

Leptin and its cardiovascular effects: Focus on angiogenesis

open access: yesAdvanced Biomedical Research, 2015
Leptin is an endocrine hormone synthesized by adipocytes. It plays a key role in the energy homeostasis in central and peripheral tissues and has additional roles are attributed to it, such as the regulation of reproduction, immune function, bone ...

Effects of clozapine on adipokine secretions/productions and lipid droplets in 3T3-L1 adipocytes

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2017
Clozapine, a second-generation antipsychotic (SGA), is a cause of side effects related to metabolic syndrome. The participation of serotonin 5-HT2C and histamine H1 receptors in the central nervous system has been reported as a mechanism of the weight ...

The Phlorotannin-Rich Fraction of Ecklonia cava Extract Attenuated the Expressions of the Markers Related with Inflammation and Leptin Resistance in Adipose Tissue

open access: yesInternational Journal of Endocrinology, 2020
Obesity is associated with systemic chronic inflammation, and it induces central leptin resistance which blocks the appetite-suppressing effect of leptin and leptin resistance in adipocytes. In the present study, we evaluated the effects of Ecklonia cava

Leptin increases sympathetic nerve activity via induction of its own receptor in the paraventricular nucleus

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Whether leptin acts in the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) to increase sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) is unclear, since PVN leptin receptors (LepR) are sparse.
