Leptin regulates lipid metabolism, maximizing insulin sensitivity; however, peripheral leptin resistance is not fully understood, and its contribution to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is unclear. This study evaluated the contribution of the leptin axis to MASLD in humans. Forty-three participants, mostly female (8...
Most quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) detection methods use two types of chemistries to measure the expression levels of ChREBP isoforms, hydrolysis probes for ChREBPα and SYBR Green for ChREBPβ. Hydrolysis probes are not available to determine the ChREBPβ isoform. The aim of this study was to develop a qPCR assay based only on hydrolysis probes f...
The expansion of adipose tissue is regulated by insulin and leptin through SREBP-1c, up-regulating lipogenesis in tissues by SCD1 enzyme, while ATGL enzyme is key in lipolysis. The research objective was to evaluate the expression of SREBF1, SCD1, PNPLA2, and LEP genes in hepatic-adipose tissue, and related them with the increment and distribution...
