(Submitter supplied) Ob/ob mice were given 0, 12.5 or 25 ng/hr leptin through an osmotic pump. After 12 days, livers RNA was prepared and illumina microarrays were done. We tested whether leptin can ameliorate diabetes independent of weight loss by defining the lowest dose at which leptin treatment of ob/ob mice reduces plasma [glucose] and [insulin]. We found that a leptin dose of 12.5 ng/hour significantly lowers blood glucose and that 25 ng/hour of leptin normalizes plasma glucose and insulin without significantly reducing body weight, thus establishing that leptin exerts its most potent effects on glucose metabolism. more...

Analysis of liver from ob/ob animals treated with 12.5 or 25 ng/hour of leptin. Treatment of ob/ob animals with 12.5 ng/hour of leptin lowers blood glucose and that with 25 ng/hour normalizes plasma glucose and insulin without reducing body weight.
