Leptin, the product of the ob gene, is involved in the control of ovarian functions. Leptin transcripts and OB proteins were localized in the porcine corpus luteum, but the regulatory mechanism of leptin mRNA expression and leptin secretion in porcine luteal cells remains unexplained. The aim of the present study was to: 1) determine level of leptin and long form of leptin receptor (OB-Rb) tran...
High circulating concentrations of leptin in obesity are associated with an apparent loss of its characteristic anorexic action within the hypothalamic region of the brain. Central insensitivity to leptin may therefore contribute to the aetiology of this disease, and an increased understanding of the underlying mechanisms will identify potential means of prevention and/or therapeutic targets. S...
The adipocyte hormone leptin activates signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) in the hypothalamus, mediating increased satiety and increased energy expenditure. To date, leptin-mediated activation of the STAT pathway in vivo has not been established in tissues other than hypothalamus. We now describe leptin receptor expression and in vivo signaling in discrete regions of the...
To investigate the leptin related genes expression patterns and their possible function during the gonadal development in fish, the cDNA and genomic sequences of leptin, leptin receptor (leptinR), and leptin receptor overlapping transcript like-1 (leprotl1) were cloned and their expression levels were quantified in the different gonadal development stages of Megalobrama amblycephala. The result...
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...
Leptin, a hormone secreted by adipocytes, plays a pivotal role in the control of body weight. Rodents with mutations in the leptin receptor gene develop morbid obesity. It is possible, therefore, that leptin receptor gene mutations contribute to human obesity. To test this possibility, we determined the entire coding sequence of the human leptin receptor cDNA from peripheral blood lymphocytes o...
leptin is secreted mainly by fat, which is involved in energy metabolism and reproduction. leptin and itsreceptor (ob-r) have been detected in human spermatozoa and testis, thus it can be concluded leptin involves in male physiology. the goal of this study was determination of the presence of leptin receptor mrna in the ram testis, epididymis and spermatozoa by reverse transcription polymerase ...
Leptin targets the brain to regulate feeding, neuroendocrine function and metabolism. The leptin receptor is present in hypothalamic centers controlling energy metabolism as well as in the centrally projecting Edinger-Westphal nucleus (EWcp), a region implicated in the stress response and in various aspects of stress-related behaviors. We hypothesized that the stress response by cocaine- and am...
Abstract Pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons in the hypothalamus play a role both control of metabolic state and sexual behavior. Along with fast neurotransmitters glutamate and/or GABA, POMC secrete cocaine- amphetamine-regulated transcript (CART) products gene, including β-endorphin α-melanocortin stimulating hormone (α-MSH). Published data from our lab demonstrate lack interest male mice whe...
Introduction: A specific role of dopamine D2 receptor signaling of midbrain and hypothalamic dopaminergic systems has not been yet identified in energy homeostasis. Here, we investigated effects of intra-ventromedial hypothalamus (VMH) administration of the D2 receptor agonist (quinpirole) and antagonist (sulpiride) on plasma leptin and glucose levels in fasted rats. Methods: A guide cannul...
