Popis: | The aim of our study was to compare the changes of serum leptin levels after 24-h fasting in morbidly obese and lean females and to search for hormonal and metabolic factors responsible for the changes in serum leptin levels. Fourteen morbidly obese and twelve lean females were included in the study. The blood for leptin, insulin, cortisol, blood glucose (BG), beta-OH-butyrate (beta-OH), dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and DHEA-sulphate (DHEA-S) measurements was withdrawn before and after a 24-h fast. Basal body mass index (BMI), serum leptin, insulin and beta-OH levels were significantly higher in the obese compared to the lean group. The 24-h fasting decreased significantly BMI, serum leptin (by 20% in obese vs. 62% in lean subjects), insulin (by 23.3% in obese vs. 23.1% in lean subjects) and increased beta-OH (by 36% in obese vs. 1300% in lean subjects). Basal serum leptin levels correlated positively with BMI in both groups and with insulin levels in the obese group. The multiple regression analysis using delta leptin as dependent and the basal values of the rest of studied parameters as independent variables revealed that in lean subjects serum cortisol together with DHEA-S and BMI accounted for 71% of variations of the change of serum leptin levels (delta leptin = 0.31- 0.0101 cortisol + 0.0012 DHEA-S + 0.37 BMI). In obese subjects the 43.9% of variations of the change of serum leptin levels was explained by BMI together with age and DHEA-S levels (delta leptin = 36.09 + 0.35 BMI - 0.717 age- 0.008 DHEA-S). The drop of serum leptin levels after 24-h starvation is significantly blunted in obese compared to lean subjects. The reason for the difference is probably the insulin resistance possibly further modified by different DHEA-S levels. |
