Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to explore how lead exposure during the development phases of rats affects leptin levels in various body fluids and its potential link to cognitive impairment.
- Rats were divided into control and lead-exposed groups based on different lead acetate concentrations in their drinking water, with various methods used to measure lead and leptin levels.
- Results indicated that lead exposure increased lead content in the rats while significantly reducing leptin levels in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid, suggesting a connection between decreased leptin and cognitive impairments due to lead toxicity.
