Leptin drives fat distribution during diet-induced obesity in mice.
OBJECTIVE Desensitization of leptin receptors is a process that specifically occurs in some tissues. We have hypothesized that during the development of obesity tissue lipids would increase gradually in particular organs depending on leptin responsiveness. Our aim was to establish a relationship between leptin resistance and lipid deposition by using a model of diet-induced obesity (DIO) and we...
متن کاملRole of selective leptin resistance in diet-induced obesity hypertension.
Leptin is an adipocyte-derived hormone that plays a key role in the regulation of body weight through its actions on appetite and metabolism. Leptin also increases sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) and blood pressure. We tested the hypothesis that diet-induced obesity is associated with resistance to the metabolic actions of leptin but preservation of its renal SNA and arterial pressure effects,...
متن کاملLeptin resistance: a prediposing factor for diet-induced obesity.
Obesity is a resilient and complex chronic disease. One potential causative factor in the obesity syndrome is leptin resistance. Leptin behaves as a potent anorexic and energy-enhancing hormone in most young or lean animals, but its effects are diminished or lacking in the obese state associated with a normal genetic background. Emerging evidence suggests that leptin resistance predisposes the ...
متن کاملHyperleptinemia precipitates diet-induced obesity in transgenic mice overexpressing leptin.
Transgenic mice overexpressing leptin backcrossed to the C57BL/6J genetic background (LepTg) have a lean phenotype, characterized by a 95% reduction in adipose mass; reduced plasma levels of glucose, triglycerides, insulin, and IGF-1; and a 75% decrease in adipocyte size. High-fat diet treatment for 20 wk revealed that, compared with normal mice, the LepTg mice had an increased susceptibility t...
متن کاملReduced central leptin sensitivity in rats with diet-induced obesity.
On low-fat chow diet, rats prone to diet-induced obesity (DIO) have increased arcuate nucleus neuropeptide Y (NPY) expression but similar leptin levels compared with diet-resistant (DR) rats (19). Here, body weight and leptin levels rose in DIO rats, and they defended their higher body weight after only 1 wk on a 31% fat high-energy (HE) diet. However, DIO NPY expression did not fall to DR leve...
