Leptin resensitisation: A reversion of leptin-resistant states
(BioScientifica, 2019-06)
Leptin resistance refers to states in which leptin fails to promote its anticipated effects, frequently coexisting with hyperleptinaemia. Leptin resistance is closely associated with obesity and also observed in physiological ...

Serum leptin level in hypertensive middle-aged obese women
(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2005-07-01)
The mechanism by which adiposity can raise blood pressure is not fully understood. Leptin has been suggested as a possible cause of the arterial hypertension in obese subjects because leptin induces an increase in sympathetic ...
Influence of dexamethasone and weight loss on the regulation of serum leptin levels in obese individuals
(Associação Brasileira de Divulgação Científica, 2001-04-01)
The adipocyte hormone leptin is thought to serve as a signal to the central nervous system reflecting the status of fat stores. Serum leptin levels and adipocyte leptin messenger RNA levels are clearly increased in obesity. ...

Insulin enhances leptin expression in human trophoblastic cells
(Oxford University Press, 2013-06)
Leptin, one of the adipokines that controls energy metabolism via the central nervous system, also has pleiotropic peripheral effects, acting as a proinflammatory cytokine. Leptin is also produced by trophoblastic cells ...
