Abstract
Leptin is an adipokine that regulates energy balance and may influence inflammatory skin conditions.
- Leptin exhibits a circadian rhythm that can be disrupted by variations in eating times and sleep disorders.
- Dysregulated serum levels of leptin could activate pro-inflammatory pathways.
- Leptin may modulate appetite and tissue repair processes.
- There is an association between leptin levels and inflammatory dermatoses, particularly in the context of obesity.
