Serum leptin levels in acute protein deprivation

Abstract: Leptin may be an important mediator of weight loss and decreased food intake in PEM. Elevated serum leptin in PEM may be secondary to elevated serum corticosterone, with other factors inherent in the host response to protein restriction also contributing to elevated serum leptin.

“…Their ability to engulf pathogens and to produce cytokines and ROIs is impaired [51–54]. However, the suggestion that malnutrition suppresses macrophage functions due to elevated glucocorticoid levels was not supported by a recent study [55]. Further experiments are required to identify the mechanisms connecting PEM and immunosuppression.…”

“…Interestingly, however, we demonstrated that serum leptin was positively associated with food intake in these infected animals. Most studies have shown reduced serum leptin in PEM (Haluzik et al 1999; Soliman et al 2000; Palacio et al 2002) with the exception of Stapleton et al (2003). Our data in infected mice, if anything, suggest higher leptin in PD mice than in PS mice.…”
