Vitamin D - 1,25(OH)2D3 conducts its endocrine actions by genomic and non-genomic mechanisms. Several organs, including liver, pancreas, muscle, fat tissue and bone, express the gene for vitamin D receptor. Leptin - which is a hormone produced by fat tissue that has important effects on energy homeostasis and control of satiety - and osteocalcin genes both are controlled by vitamin D rece…
Adipokines such as adiponectin and leptin play, through hypothalamic modulation, an important role on bone formation, glucose homeostasis and satiety control. Leptin and osteocalcin genes are both controlled by vitamin D receptor. The effects of overweight and vitamin D deficiency at the bone mass of adolescents are not completely known, and substances such as leptin seem to have strong i…
