Role of leptin in the cardiovascular and endocrine complications of metabolic syndrome
Abstract
Aim: To review the potential role of leptin, hyperleptinaemia and leptin resistance in the cardiovascular and endocrine complications of metabolic syndrome. Methods: Review of literature listed in Medline. Results: Hyperleptinaemia is common in obesity and reflects increased adiposity and leptin resistance. Nevertheless, leptin resistance may not be complete as several actions of leptin, such as cardiovascular sympatho‐activation, might be preserved in obese subjects known to be resistant to the metabolic effects of leptin (i.e. selective leptin resistance). Notably, the renal and sympathetic actions of leptin may play an important role in the pathogenesis of hypertension related to obesity and metabolic syndrome. Furthermore, the lipotoxic effect of leptin resistance may cause insulin resistance and β cell dysfunction, increasing the risk of type 2 diabetes. Leptin has also been shown to possess proliferative, pro‐inflammatory, pro‐thrombotic, and pro‐oxidative actions. Conclusion: Hyperleptinaemia and leptin resistance may contribute to hypertension, impaired glucose metabolism, and pro‐atherogenic state in obesity and metabolic syndrome.

“It was also recently suggested that leptin resistance in obesity is restricted to the metabolic actions of leptin (62), and impaired leptin signaling was observed in one study using ventricular cardiomyocytes isolated from rats subjected to 10-wk dietary sucrose feeding to generate hyperleptinemia and insulin resistance (139).”

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.
