Normalization of adiponectin concentrations by leptin replacement in ob/ob mice is accompanied by reductions in systemic oxidative stress and inflammation.


ABSTRACT: The circulating concentrations of adiponectin, an antidiabetic adipokine, have been shown to be reduced in obesity, in relation to an increase in inflammation. The aim of the present work was to assess the effect of leptin replacement on adiponectin levels and expression as well as on markers of oxidative stress and inflammation in leptin-deficient ob/ob mice. Twelve-week-old male mice (n?=?7-10 per group) were treated with either saline (wild type and ob/ob mice) or leptin (ob/ob mice) for 18 days. A third group of ob/ob mice was treated with saline and pair-fed to the amount of food consumed by the leptin-treated group. Leptin replacement restored values of adiponectin (P?
