association of serum soluble leptin receptor and leptin levels with breast cancer

چکیده
background: leptin plays a key role in the regulation of energy expenditure and is known to circulate in both free and bound forms. soluble leptin receptor (sob-r) is a unique circulating form of leptin receptor that can bind to leptin. leptin and leptin receptor have been implicated in processes leading to breast cancer initiation and progression. our study was aimed to investigate the relationship between serum levels of sob-r and leptin with breast cancer. materials and methods: serum leptin and sob-r levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in 100 women with breast cancer cases compared with 100 age and body mass index (bmi)-matched controls without cancer. lipid profiles were measured by enzymatic method. results: the median serum levels of sob-r in controls were significantly higher than that in breast cancer cases (odds ratio [or], 1.98; 95% confidence interval [ci] = 0.77-188.2) versus (or, 0.140; 95% ci = 0.09-98.1). conversely, the median serum level of leptin in breast cancer cases was significantly higher than that in controls (or, 67.90; 95% ci = 2.77-129.9) vs. (or, 28.30; 95% ci = 0.60-113.1). breast cancer was significantly associated with higher serum level of leptin (or = 1.027, 95% ci = 1.017-1.038). conversely, breast cancer was correlated with lower serum level of sob-r (or = 0.983, 95% ci = 0.969-0.997). moreover, free leptin index (fli) (leptin/sob-r ratio) was associated with breast cancer (or = 1.028, 95% ci = 1.015-1.042). the serum sob-r level was negatively associated with leptin, bmi, and high density lipoprotein (r = −0.238, −0.186, and −0.168, respectively). conclusion: our results suggested that fli and serum leptin level rather than serum level of sob-r was associated with the breast cancer.

Objective(s):Leptin receptor (LEPR) is a member of the class I cytokine receptor super-family that is known implicated in the initiation and progression of breast cancer. We have investigated the effect of Q223R polymorphism on the breast cancer susceptibly in a sample of Iranian subjects. Materials and Methods:We utilized a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) restriction fragment length polymorphi...
متن کاملCorrelation of leptin and soluble leptin receptor levels with anthropometric parameters in mother-newborn pairs.
The aim of this study was to investigate if anthropometric parameters are associated with both leptin and soluble leptin receptor (sLEPR) levels in newborns and their mothers. This cross-sectional study was performed in 118 mother-newborn pairs. The venous blood sample of mothers was taken before delivery and immediately after delivery an umbilical cord blood sample was collected. Levels of lep...
متن کاملSerum ghrelin levels in obese patients: the relationship to serum leptin levels and soluble leptin receptors levels.
Ghrelin is a new endogenous ligand for the growth hormone secretagogue receptor. It activates the release of growth hormone from the pituitary and it also participates in the regulation of energy homeostasis. The aim of the study was to characterize changes in serum ghrelin levels in obese subjects and their relationship to the serum levels of leptin and soluble leptin receptor. Eight obese pat...
متن کاملSoluble leptin receptor in serum of subjects with complete resistance to leptin: relation to fat mass.
Leptin resistance and obesity have been related to mutations of the leptin receptor gene in rodents and, recently, in a consanguineous family. The latter mutation results in a receptor lacking transmembrane and intracellular domains. Homozygous and heterozygous individuals with this mutation had serum leptin levels higher than expected, given their BMIs: 600, 670, and 526 ng/ml and 145, 362, 29...
