Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Plays a Central Role in Development of Leptin Resistance

Abstract: Leptin has not evolved as a therapeutic modality for the treatment of obesity due to the prevalence of leptin resistance in a majority of the obese population. Nevertheless, the molecular mechanisms of leptin resistance remain poorly understood. Here, we show that increased endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and activation of the unfolded protein response (UPR) in the hypothalamus of obese mice inhibits leptin receptor signaling. The genetic imposition of reduced ER capacity in mice results in severe leptin res… Show more

“…Heavy, lean sows that do not have sufficiently high lactation intake will likely have poorer longevity due to excessive weight loss. However, weight lossassociated stress can trigger increased appetite to compensate (Doucet et al, 2000) or alternatively inhibit appetite suppression (Ozcan et al, 2009), as shown in other species. Bergsma et al (2008) were the first to coin the term lactation efficiency (LE, defined as output/input), which combines the resources provided by the sow (through weight and fat loss) with lactation intake into an input variable, after accounting for sow maintenance requirements, and relates this input to piglet output.…”

“…Therefore, we suggest that SOCS-3 is a putative mechanism for the onset of leptin resistance in DIO rats. In addition to SOCS-3, other negative regulators of leptin signaling have been shown to be involved in the induction of leptin signaling in the central nervous system, such as PTP1B (2,20) and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress (31). Further work is required to determine whether PTP1B or proteins involved in ER stress are expressed in VAN and whether these mechanisms are involved in the development of leptin resistance in these neurons.…”

“…Several mechanisms have been proposed to explain this resistance, including impaired leptin transport across the blood-brain barrier, endoplasmic reticulum stress and inflammation, as well as attenuated leptin signaling by SOCS3 and protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) (Ozcan et al, 2009;Zhang, Scarpace, 2009;Myers et al, 2012).…”
