Metreleptin-mediated improvements in insulin sensitivity are independent of food intake in humans with lipodystrophy

Recombinant leptin (metreleptin) ameliorates hyperphagia and metabolic abnormalities in leptin-deficient humans with lipodystrophy. We aimed to determine whether metreleptin improves glucose and lipid metabolism in humans when food intake is held constant. Patients with lipodystrophy were hospitaliz...
