Biological Action of Leptin as an Angiogenic Factor
M. Rocio Sierra-Honigmann,Anjali K. Nath,Chiaki Murakami,Guillermo García-Cardeña,Andreas Papapetropoulos,William C. Sessa,Lisa A. Madge,Jeffrey S. Schechner,Michael B. Schwabb,Peter J. Polverini,Jaime Flores-Riveros +10 more
TL;DR: It is shown that OB-Rb is also expressed in human vasculature and in primary cultures of human endothelial cells, indicating that the vascular endothelium is a target for leptin and suggesting a physiological mechanism whereby leptin-induced angiogenesis may facilitate increased energy expenditure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transcriptional Activation of the Human Leptin Gene in Response to Hypoxia INVOLVEMENT OF HYPOXIA-INDUCIBLE FACTOR 1
TL;DR: Observations demonstrate that the leptin gene is actively engaged by hypoxia through a transcriptional pathway commonly utilized by Hypoxia-sensitive genes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Leptin is an autocrine/paracrine regulator of wound healing
Ali Murad,Anjali K. Nath,Sung-Tae Cha,Erhan Demir,Jaime Flores-Riveros,M. Rocio Sierra-Honigmann +5 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that leptin is acutely up‐regulated in the injured skin and proposed that this local production of leptin serves a critical functional role as an autocrine/paracrine regulator of normal wound healing.
Patent
Regulated expression of recombinant DNA
TL;DR: In this paper, the concept of regulatable recombinant expression constructs that provide regulated gene expression of mammalian genes has been introduced, which is related to our concept of regulatory gene expression.
