Background Information
Leptin is a product of the obese (ob) gene and, following synthesis and secretion from fat cells in white adipose tissue, binds to and activates its cognate receptor, the leptin receptor (LEP-R) (PMID: 34084149). Still, smaller quantities have been detected in other body tissues, including the brown adipose tissue (BAT), placenta, fetal tissue, stomach, muscles, bone marrow, teeth, and brain (PMID:7568067, PMID: 12086939). Leptin circulates in the blood in both free and protein-bound forms, where the free form of leptin is the biologically active form (PMID: 12086939). Leptin can enter the central nervous system (CNS) (in the area of the choroid plexus) by receptor-mediated transport (PMID: 29254602). Leptin secretion is higher in subcutaneous than in visceral adipose tissue (PMID: 11133069, PMID: 14726444).
