Extra Details:
Receptor for hormone LEP/leptin (Probable) (PubMed:11861497). On ligand binding; mediates LEP central and peripheral effects through the activation of different signaling pathways such as JAK2/STAT3 and MAPK cascade/FOS (PubMed:10799542; PubMed:25383904; PubMed:11923481; PubMed:11861497). In the hypothalamus; LEP acts as an appetite-regulating factor that induces a decrease in food intake and an increase in energy consumption by inducing anorexinogenic factors and suppressing orexigenic neuropeptides; also regulates bone mass and secretion of hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal hormones (PubMed:10660043; PubMed:12594516). In the periphery; increases basal metabolism; influences reproductive function; regulates pancreatic beta-cell function and insulin secretion; is pro-angiogenic and affects innate and adaptive immunity (PubMed:25383904; PubMed:11923481). Control of energy homeostasis and melanocortin production (stimulation of POMC and full repression of AgRP transcription) is mediated by STAT3 signaling; whereas distinct signals regulate NPY and the control of fertility; growth and glucose homeostasis (PubMed:12594516). Involved in the regulation of counter-regulatory response to hypoglycemia by inhibiting neurons of the parabrachial nucleus (PubMed:25383904). Has a specific effect on T lymphocyte responses; differentially regulating the proliferation of naive and memory T-cells. Leptin increases Th1 and suppresses Th2 cytokine production (PubMed:9732873).
