Leptin, the product of the ob gene, controls appetite through the hypothalamus and may affect many other tissues because of the widespread distribution of its receptors. Leptin is synthesized by white adipose tissue (WAT) under conditions of high energy availability and insulin stimulus. Glucocorticoids enhance this synthesis and catecholamines hamper leptin production. Leptin diminishes insulin secretion by the pancreatic beta cells and induces insulin resistance. In fact leptin hampers insulin action on WAT itself in a negative feedback loop. The evidence acquired in studies on diabetics, starvation, refeeding and insulin and glucose clamps supports this interpretation, which may also explain part of the difficulties encountered by the current postulate that links leptin to WAT mass size signalling to the brain. Leptin may be, essentially, a counter-regulatory hormone limiting the insulin drive to store energy in the form of fat, its effects reaching from a decrease in food intake to lower insulin secretion and increased resistance to insulin and lower glucose uptake and fat synthesis by WAT.
