Target Information
Mouse Leptin (Lep) is a hormone produced primarily by adipose tissue. It plays a key role in regulating energy balance and metabolism. Lep acts on the leptin receptor (LEPR) in the brain and other tissues, signaling information about energy stores. This signaling influences food intake, energy expenditure, and glucose metabolism. Lep is involved in various physiological processes, including immune function and reproduction. Dysregulation of Lep levels or signaling has been associated with obesity, diabetes, and other metabolic disorders. Understanding its function may provide insights into developing treatments for these conditions.
