Leptin is an adipocyte-derived
circulating satiety factor with a variety of biological effects.
Evidence has accumulated suggesting that leptin may modulate glucose
and lipid metabolism. In the present study, we examined lipid
metabolism in transgenic skinny mice with elevated plasma leptin
concentrations. The plasma concentrations of triglycerides and free
fatty acids in transgenic skinny mice were 71.5 ( P |
