Leptin and Leptin Receptor mRNA and Protein Expression in the Murine Fetus and Placenta

Leptin is a 167-aa protein that is secreted from adipose tissue and is important in the regulation of energy balance. It also functions in hematopoiesis and reproduction. To assess whether leptin is involved in fetal growth and development we have examined the distribution of mRNAs encoding leptin a...
