Effect of leptin receptor Q223R polymorphism on breast cancer risk
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 کاملLeptin, soluble leptin receptor and leptin gene polymorphism in relation to preeclampsia risk.
Few investigators have simultaneously evaluated leptin, soluble leptin receptor (SLR) and leptin gene polymorphisms in preeclampsia cases and controls. We examined these three biomolecular markers in 40 preeclampsia cases and 39 controls. Plasma leptin and SLR concentrations were determined using immunoassays. Genotype for the tetranucleotide repeat (TTTC)(n), polymorphism in the 3 -flanking re...
متن کاملTracking of leptin, soluble leptin receptor, and the free leptin index during weight loss and regain in children.
OBJECTIVE To investigate changes in leptin and soluble leptin receptor (SLR) concentrations, and in the free leptin index (FLI) during weight loss and subsequent weight regain; and to ascertain whether these indices remain stable in the rank of the distribution in repeated measures (tracking) during perturbations of weight in obese children. DESIGN AND MEASUREMENTS In a longitudinal study, 11...
متن کاملExpression of leptin and leptin receptor transcript in ovine corpus luteum
Background: Leptin, the product of the obesity (ob) gene, acts as a signaling adipokine for modulating food intake, energy metabolism and reproductive functions in mammals. Leptin’s effects on the reproductive system at various levels of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis have been established. Moreover, the direct and local effect of leptin on bovine oocyte maturation and corpus luteum fu...
متن کاملassociation of serum soluble leptin receptor and leptin levels with breast cancer
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 relatio...
