Abstract

The present study has shown a parallel increase of triacylglycerol, cholesterol, and low density lipoprotein (LDL) along with an increase in body mass and BMI of human obese subjects. Conversely a fall in HDL concentration was observed. Plasma leptin level increased proportionately with increase of body weight as obesity advanced from obese to morbid type. A positive correlation was observed between leptin and insulin concentrations in obese subjects. A parallel increase of plasma glucose concentration was followed with decreased expression of insulin receptor, measured in adipose tissue, with the progress of obesity. The decreased insulin receptor concentration might be the reason for seen insulin resistance and increased insulin level which marked the positive correlation with associated liptin level in obese subjects.
