Increases in leptin levels, sympathetic drive, and weight gain in obstructive sleep apnea
TL;DR: Higher leptin levels in OSA, independent of body fat content, suggest that OSA is associated with resistance to the weight-reducing effects of leptin, and the hypothesis that obesity and predisposition to weight gain in OSO are associated with low levels of plasma leptin is tested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Leptin interacts with heart rate but not sympathetic nerve traffic in healthy male subjects.

TL;DR: In normal men, heart rate, but not MSNA, is linked to plasma leptin concentration, and this sex-specific relationship between heart rate and plasma leptin is independent of plasma insulin, BMI, waist : hip ratio and percentage body fat.
Journal ArticleDOI
Heritability of plasma leptin levels: a twin study.

TL;DR: Genetic factors are major determinants of plasma leptin levels in humans and may account for as much as half of the variance in leptin levels.
