Leptin signalling
Abstract
The identification of leptin as the product of the obesity (ob) gene has been followed by extensive research identifying a wide spectrum of physiological effects elicited by this adipose-derived hormone. These effects are mediated via a family of cytokine-like receptor isoforms distributed in both the central nervous system and periphery. The signal transduction pathways regulated by leptin are diverse and include those characteristic of both cytokine and growth factor receptor signalling. This review describes the structure and function of leptin receptors and summarizes recent progress that has been made in characterizing the increasing number of signal transduction pathways regulated by leptin.

Elevated circulating levels of leptin are found in obese individuals.
“Elevated circulating levels of leptin, which act via a family of receptor (ob.R) isoforms (335) to mediate an ever-growing wide range of physiological effects (8, 312), are found in obese individuals.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
