Effects of a single nucleotide polymorphism in the leptin gene on the productive traits of dairy buffaloes (Bubalus bubalis)
(2013-08-01)
The gene responsible for coding the leptin hormone has been associated with productive and reproductive traits in cattle. In dairy cattle, different polymorphisms found in the leptin gene have been associated with several ...

Review: Leptin gene expression in the placenta - Regulation of a key hormone in trophoblast proliferation and survival
(Elsevier, 2011-03)
Leptin is a 16000 MW protein originally described as an adipocyte-derived signaling molecule for the central control of metabolism. However, pleiotropic effects of leptin have been identified in reproduction and pregnancy. ...
Leptin promoter gene polymorphism on -2549 position decreases plasma leptin and increases appetite in normal weight volunteers

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 ...
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 ...
Regulation of leptin expression by 17beta-estradiol in human placental cells involves membrane associated estrogen receptor alpha.
(Elsevier, 2012-01)
The placenta produces a wide number of molecules that play essential roles in the establishment and maintenance of pregnancy. In this context, leptin has emerged as an important player in reproduction. The synthesis of ...
