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

International 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

The gingiva contains leptin and leptin receptor in health and disease

Odontology, 2011
The presence of leptin (OB) and soluble OB receptor (s-OB-R) in gingival tissue extract and gingival crevicular fluid has led the studies investigating the relationship between OB and periodontal diseases. This study aims to investigate the levels of OB and s-OB-R in serum and their presence in gingiva of healthy controls (HC), gingivitis (G ...

Characterization and localization of leptin receptors in the rat kidney [PDF]

, 1997
Characterization and localization of leptin binding sites were investigated in rat kidneys using [125I]leptin as a ligand. [125I]Leptin specific binding was found in high amounts in rat renomedullary membranes.

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

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

Transcriptional Characterization of Porcine Leptin and Leptin Receptor Genes

PLoS ONE, 2013
The leptin (LEP) and its receptor (LEPR) regulate food intake and energy balance through hypothalamic signaling. However, the LEP-LEPR axis seems to be more complex and its expression regulation has not been well described. In pigs, LEP and LEPR genes have been widely studied due to their relevance. Previous studies reported significant effects of SNPs
