Leptin, secreted by adipocytes, regulates satiety
and energy expenditure. Several forms of leptin receptors produced by
alternative mRNA splicing are found in many tissues, including the
hypothalamus, liver, lung, kidney, hematopoietic cells, and gonads,
suggesting that leptin exerts effects in these tissues. In accordance
with the distribution of leptin receptors, there is accumulating
evidence that leptin plays various roles in reproduction,
hematopoiesis, and the immune systems in addition to the regulation of
food intake and energy expenditure. In the present study, we examined
the in vitro effects of leptin on proliferation of a mouse
embryonic cell line, C3H10T1/2, and its mechanism of action. Leptin
caused a dose- and time-dependent increase in
mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activity that was accompanied
by an increase in C3H10T1/2 cell number. The MAPK kinase-1-specific
inhibitor PD98059 completely blocked the increases in both MAPK
activity and cell proliferation caused by leptin. These findings
indicate that leptin stimulates the proliferation of C3H10T1/2 cells
via the MAPK cascade.
