Leptin the cytokine-like hormone is involved not only in local inflammations, but it regulates cholesterol biosynthesis in human monocytes. Since, monocyte-membrane composition in obesity shows considerable difference from control cells, our aim was to elucidate the concentration dependence of the effect of leptin in OW monocytes, and the downstream signaling of high and low leptin concentrations...
Angiotensin II (Ang II) and leptin generate statin-inhibitable superoxide anion production that accounts for only part of the entire superoxide anion production. In our recent studies, we aimed at elucidating whether Ang II and leptin, affecting the intensity of the mevalonate cycle, are able to increase endogenous cholesterol synthesis. Furthermore, we compared the superoxide anion and cholesterol...
