Leptin is an adipose tissue-secreted cytokine that sits at the intersection of metabolism and immunity. Interestingly obesity is a state of high serum leptin levels, thus leptin by virtue of its multiple physiologic effects is likely to play an important role in directing inflammation in obese patients as well...
