Leptin (grč. leptos - tanak) je proteinski hormon saa 16 kDa. On učestvuje u regulaciji unosa i potrošnje energije, putem uvećavanja apetita i metabolizma. On je jedan od najvažnijih hormona adipoznog porekla.[2] Gen Ob(Lep) (Ob za engl. obese - gojazan) je lociran na hromozomu 7 kod čoveka.[3]
Efekti leptina su proučavani 1950-tih putem studiranja mutiranih gojaznih miševa, koji se randomno javljaju u kolonijama miševa u Džeksonovoj laboratoriji.[4] Ti miševi su bili izuzetno gojazni i preterano alavi. Ultimatno, za više sojeva laboratorijskih miševa je utvrđeno da su homozigotni za jednu gensku-mutaciju koja je uzrokovala njihovu izuzetnu gojaznost. Oni se svrstavaju u dve klase:
- „ob/ob“, oni sa mutacijama gena za proteinski hormon leptin, i
- „db/db“, oni sa mutacijama gena za receptor leptina.
Kad su ob/ob miševi tretirani injekcijama leptina, oni su izgubili njihovo suvišnu masnoću i vratili se na normalnu telesnu težinu.
Leptin je otkrio 1994. Džefri M. Fridman sa saradnicima na Rokfelerovom univerzitetu putem studija takvih miševa.[5]
