Effects of T cell leptin signaling on systemic glucose tolerance and T cell responses in obesity

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Leptin is an adipokine secreted in proportion to adipocyte mass and is therefore increased in obesity. Leptin signaling has been shown to directly promote inflammatory T helper 1 (Th1) and T helper 17 (Th17) cell number and function. Since T cells have a critical role in drivi...
