“…To our knowledge, these potentially informative studies have not been undertaken. In our previous study of type 2 diabetes patients, we found impaired leptin responses to glucocorticoid in patients with long‐standing (30) but not newly diagnosed diabetes (31). The latter suggests a possible role for residual β‐cell function in the orchestration of glucocorticoid responsiveness in diabetic subjects.…”

“…The adipokine leptin also has roles related to the control of metabolism and energy homeostasis (29), with anorectic, antiobesity, and insulin-sensitizing properties (30). In sheep and humans, plasma leptin concentrations are positively associated with body fatness and nutritional status (31).…”

“…Serum leptin concentration has been found in humans to be a biomarker for components of the metabolic syndrome in both lean and obese subjects (32). In long-standing type 2 diabetics, decreased leptin response to glucocorticoids was associated with inability to augment insulin secretion during glucocorticoid treatment, suggesting that deranged regulation of leptin may contribute to the obesity and insulin resistance seen in type 2 diabetes (30).…”

“…Furthermore, leptin in BC, which works in concert with IGF-1, could be beneficial to people with elevated cholesterol and TG levels, because it is linked to fat breakdown in muscle. Interestingly, Type 2 diabetic patients were shown to have significantly lower leptin levels compared to nondiabetic subjects after controlling for age and percent body fat [14,15].…”
