Adipokines are cell-signaling proteins secreted by adipose tissue that has been related to a
low-grade state of inflammation and different pathologies. The present review aims to …

Leptin and adiponectin represent two newly discovered adipose tissue derived hormones;
that are both associated with health status and glucose and free fatty acid (FFA) metabolism …

The phenomenon of circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) concentrations is of importance for
many biomedical disciplines including the field of exercise physiology. Increases of cfDNA …

The lack of adequate physical activity and obesity created a worldwide pandemic. Obesity is
characterized by the deposition of adipose tissue in various parts of the body; it is now …

A well-balanced metabolism means a lower risk for metabolism-related neuropsychiatric
disorders. Leptin is a secretory adipokine involved in the central control of appetite that …

It is established that plasma leptin is associated with satiety and that leptin stimulates lipid
metabolism, and increases energy expenditure. These effects implicate leptin as a major …

Receptors of leptin, the prototypical adipokine, are expressed throughout the cortex and
several other areas of the brain. Although typically studied for its role in energy intake and …

Leptin, a hormone synthesized by fat tissue had been noted to regulate energy balance and
metabolism and thus to influence body weight. The influence of acute exercise and chronic …

Long-distance running is an exhausting effort for the whole organism. Prolonged aerobic
exercise induces changes in inflammatory markers. However, predicting muscle damage in …

The importance of physical exercise in regulating energy balance and ultimately body mass
is widely recognized. There have been several investigative efforts in describing the …
