Regulation of placental leptin expression by cyclic adenosine 5′-monophosphate involves cross talk between protein kinase A and mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathways
Leptin, a 16-kDa protein mainly produced by adipose tissue, has been involved in the control of energy balance through its hypothalamic receptor. However, pleiotropic effects of leptin have been identified in reproduction and pregnancy, particularly in placenta, where it was found to be expressed. I...
