Objective: This study investigated whether blood concentrations of leptin, ghrelin, and adiponectin are affected by acute total sleep deprivation in a sex- and weight-specific manner.
Methods: A total of 44 participants (mean age 24.9 years; 20 women; 19 with obesity) participated in a crossover design, including one night of sleep deprivation and one night of sleep in the laboratory. After each night, fasting blood was collected.
Results: After sleep deprivation, fasting levels of leptin were lower (mean [SE], vs. sleep: 17.3 [2.6] vs. 18.6 [2.8] ng/mL), whereas those of ghrelin and adiponectin were higher (839.4 [77.5] vs. 741.4 [63.2] pg/mL and 7.5 [0.6] vs. 6.8 [0.6] μg/mL, respectively; all p < 0.05). The changes in leptin and adiponectin following sleep loss were more pronounced among women. Furthermore, the ghrelin increase was stronger among those with obesity after sleep loss. Finally, the sleep loss-induced increase in adiponectin was more marked among normal-weight participants.
Conclusions: Acute sleep deprivation reduces blood concentrations of the satiety hormone leptin. With increased blood concentrations of ghrelin and adiponectin, such endocrine changes may facilitate weight gain if persisting over extended periods of sleep loss. The observed sex- and weight-specific differences in leptin, ghrelin, and adiponectin call for further investigation.

Introduction: Infants of diabetic mothers (IDMs) may exhibit decreased oral intake, requiring nasogastric feedings and prolonged hospitalization. The objective of this study was to explore whether saliva serves as an informative biofluid for detecting expression of hunger signaling and energy homeostasis modulator genes and to perform exploratory analyses examining expression profiles, body composition, and feeding outcomes in late preterm and term IDMs and infants born to mothers with normoglycemia during pregnancy.
Methods: In this prospective cohort pilot study, infants born at ≥ 35 weeks' gestation to mothers with gestational or type II diabetes (IDM cohort) and normoglycemic mothers (control cohort) were recruited.

Incretin-based therapies are widely used to improve glycemic control and β cell dysfunction in the treatment of type 2 diabetes. (Gac fruit), a nutritious melon cultivated in many regions, has underexplored health benefits, particular its edible aril. This study comprehensively investigates the stimulatory effect of Gac aril on glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) secretion, identifies the responsible active constituents, and explores the underlying mechanisms related to its anti-diabetic effects.

Objective: To define the impact of obesity on inflammatory and oxidative disturbances in antipsychotic-treated schizophrenia patients.
Methods: Several cytokines, inflammatory, metabolic, and oxidative status markers were evaluated in obese (n = 40) and non-obese (n = 40) antipsychotic-treated patients and compared with age-and BMI-matched controls (n = 80).
Results: Schizophrenia patients had higher leptin, TNF-α, adiponectin, visfatin, resistin, P-selectin, NPY, BDNF, CD40-L, MCP-1, and malondialdehyde, and lower IL-6, ghrelin, neopterin, and vitamin E levels compared to their respective controls (p < 0.

Obesity is the result of positive energy balance in which various hormones and neurotransmitters are involved. Using Dietary supplements is a common and popular method to lose weight. Medicinal plants with specific effects on metabolizing enzymes, blocking adipogenesis, and improving energy metabolism can be a suitable alternative to these supplements.
