چکیده

Leptin was discovered as an adipostat, regulating body weight by balancing food intake and energy expenditure. Recently, leptin emerged as a pleiotropic cytokine. It plays a substantial role in a wide spectrum of other functions including immune regulation, bone formation and fertility. Leptin signalling is under tight control. Aberrations of this stringent control system may be implicated in a variety of pathologies. Here, we review the various mechanisms that control cellular leptin receptor signalling.

Somatostatin, a negative-regulator of central leptin action in the rat hypothalamus.

Leptin-responsive neurons of the hypothalamus constitute a heterogeneous population expressing a vast array of different neuropeptides and neurotransmitters, some of which participate in the regulation of hunger and satiety. Here we report that somatostatin modulates the efficacy of leptin-signalling in the rat hypothalamus. Using a two-pulse paradigm at 30-min intervals, we delivered somatosta...

P-69: Expression of Leptin Receptor mRNA in Ovine Corpus Luteum

Background: Many hormones are involved in the regulation of reproduction. Leptin hormone which is mainly secreted by adipose tissue plays an important role in energy homeostasis and reproduction. It seems that leptin is an important linkage between body metabolism and reproductive system. Moreover, it has been shown that leptin and leptin receptor express in reproductive organs of some species....

Cross down-regulation of leptin and insulin receptor expression and signalling in a human neuronal cell line.

Leptin and insulin are major signals to the hypothalamus to regulate energy homoeostasis and body adiposity. IR (insulin receptors) and leptin receptors (long isoform, ObRb) share a number of signalling cascades, such as JAK2/STAT-3 (Janus kinase 2/signal transduction and activator of transcription 3) and PI3K (phosphoinositide 3-kinase); the cross-talk between IR and ObRb have been described p...

Fatty acids inhibit leptin signalling in BRIN-BD11 insulinoma cells.

The effect of treatment with a 0.03% fatty acid (FA) cocktail on leptin-receptor-mediated STAT (signal transducers and activators of transcription) activation in the rat insulinoma cell line BRIN-BD11 was investigated. Leptin (10 nM) stimulated the tyrosine phosphorylation of STAT3 and STAT5b. Acute treatment with FAs prevented leptin-stimulated STAT3 tyrosine phosphorylation and significantly ...

Propranolol Prevents Osteoporosis and up-regulates Leptin in Ovariectomized Rats

Osteoporosis is a systemic skeletal disease and there is a close relationship between the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) and bone metabolism. Leptin has been shown to regulate bone formation and bone resorption via the SNS. However, the effect of SNS on leptin signaling has not been clearly understood. In the present study, we studied the effect of propranolol on ovariectomy-induced osteoporo...
