Disease: LEPTIN DEFICIENCY OR DYSFUNCTION
LEPTIN DEFICIENCY OR DYSFUNCTION
0.800 Biomarker disease BEFREE Our results support the idea that leptin modulates insulin sensitivity and glucose disposal independently of its effect on food intake, and that leptin deficiency accounts for the insulin resistance found in CGL. 10485707 1999

Disease: LEPTIN DEFICIENCY OR DYSFUNCTION
LEPTIN DEFICIENCY OR DYSFUNCTION
0.800 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE We have previously demonstrated that genetically based leptin deficiency due to a missense leptin gene mutation in a highly consanguineous extended Turkish pedigree is associated with morbid obesity and hypogonadism. 10523015 1999
CUI: C3554224
Disease: LEPTIN DEFICIENCY OR DYSFUNCTION
LEPTIN DEFICIENCY OR DYSFUNCTION
0.800 Biomarker disease BEFREE Our data show that similar to findings in obese humans, homozygous or heterozygous leptin deficiency is associated with increased platelet aggregation compared with controls, and that higher concentrations of leptin do not increase platelet aggregation. 11595779 2001

Disease: LEPTIN DEFICIENCY OR DYSFUNCTION
LEPTIN DEFICIENCY OR DYSFUNCTION
0.800 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Children with rare homozygous mutations in the leptin gene and complete leptin deficiency develop extreme hyperphagia and obesity soon after birth but respond with normal eating and a selective loss of excess body fat upon being given small amounts of leptin. 12403081 2002
