CUI: C0596263
Disease: Carcinogenesis
Carcinogenesis
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE <b>Background:</b> Leptin (LEP) is a human analogous form of the mouse obese gene and plays a critical role in energy expenditure as well as the progression of carcinogenesis. 31114233 2019
CUI: C0596263
Disease: Carcinogenesis
Carcinogenesis
0.100 AlteredExpression phenotype BEFREE Our findings suggest that leptin impairs responsivity of OSCC cells to the ionizing radiation, reducing the suppressive effects of irradiation on the neoplastic phenotype, and increasing protein expression critical to carcinogenesis. 30290014 2019
CUI: C0596263
Disease: Carcinogenesis
Carcinogenesis
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE Evidence suggests an important role of leptin in carcinogenesis pathways, inducing a proliferative phenotype. 29254802 2018
CUI: C0596263
Disease: Carcinogenesis
Carcinogenesis
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE Leptin stimulated migration and invasion of cultured HCT-116 cells and tumor growth in the xenograft assay, and these effects were abrogated by a SIRT1 inhibitor sirtinol, suggesting that SIRT1 plays a role in leptin-induced colon carcinogenesis. 29427626 2018
CUI: C0596263
Disease: Carcinogenesis
Carcinogenesis
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE While the plethora of circulating pro-inflammatory adipocytokines, such as leptin, resistin, extracellular nicotinamide phosphoribosyl transferase, and chemerin are elevated in malignancies, some adipocytokines such as adiponectin and omentin-1 are generally decreased in cancers and are considered protective against carcinogenesis. 30145771 2018
CUI: C0596263
Disease: Carcinogenesis
Carcinogenesis
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE Leptin plays an important role in carcinogenesis as leptin/leptin receptor signaling promotes the angiogenesis, proliferation, and inhibits epithelial cell apoptosis. 29453609 2018
CUI: C0596263
Disease: Carcinogenesis
Carcinogenesis
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE This study therefore determines if chronic leptin administration induces gastric carcinogenesis in non-obese rats, which might serve as a useful animal model for future studies. 30449153 2018
