Control of respiratory and cardiovascular functions by leptin
(2015)
Leptin, a peptide hormone produced by adipose tissue, acts in brain centers that control critical physiological functions such as metabolism, breathing and cardiovascular regulation. The importance of leptin for respiratory ...
Leptin activates oxytocin neurons of the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus in both control and diet-induced obese rodents
(Public Library Science, 2013-03-18)
The adipocyte-derived hormone leptin acts in the brain to reduce body weight and fat mass. Recent studies suggest that parvocellular oxytocin (OXT) neurons of the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) can mediate ...
Resistance exercise improves metabolic parameters and changes adipocyte-derived leptin: a comparison between genders in untrained adults
(Universidade Estadual Paulista, 2016-09-01)
Abstract This study examined gender differences after resistance exercise (RE) by measuring fasting plasma levels of creatine kinase, lipid profile, blood glucose, adiponectin, tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), and ...
Insulin modulates leptin-induced STAT3 activation in rat hypothalamus
(Elsevier Science BvAmsterdamHolanda, 2001)
Decrease in circulating glucose, insulin and leptin levels and improvement in insulin resistance at 1 and 3 months after gastric bypass
(F D-communications Inc, 2006-10-01)
Background: Hyperglycemia, insulin resistance and hyperleptinemia are some of the consequences of obesity. Gastric bypass for morbid obesity provides gastric restriction with decreased energy absorption. To confirm and ...

Relationship between leptin and insulin blood levels in obese and lean Chilean women
(SOC MEDICA SANTIAGO, 2000)
Background: Leptin, a product of ob gene and insulin blood levels, are proportional to the amount of adipose tissue. Insulin could have an independent regulatory effect on leptin secretion. Aim: To assess the relationship ...
Sistema leptina-melanocortinas en la regulación de la ingesta y el peso corporal
(2009)
Obesity is a multifactorial disease that is rarely associated to single gene defects. However, due to their direct cause-effect relationships, those genetic defects that cause some forms of monogenic obesity are relevant ...
Effects of leptin on pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN) neurons
(Springer Wien, 2013-07)
Leptin, a hormone that regulates appetite and energy expenditure, is increased in obese individuals, although these individuals often exhibit leptin resistance. Obesity is characterized by sleep/wake disturbances, such as ...
Resistance Exercise Improves Metabolic Parameters And Changes Adipocyte-derived Leptin: A Comparison Between Genders In Untrained Adults
