ABSTRACT
Leptin is a protein hormone produced mainly by obese gene and secreted by adipose tissue and exerts the biological effects through leptin receptors. With the progress in research on the function and receptor signal transduction related leptin and leptin resistance, it has been found that leptin is associated with the development and progression of many cardiovascular diseases, such as hypertension and left ventricular hypertrophy. Some studies have reported that leptin resistance is the pathologic basis for a variety of cardiovascular diseases. This paper will briefly review the advances in the study of correlation between leptin and hypertensive-left ventricular hypertrophy (HLVH), focusing on the relationship between leptin and various factors related to HLVH, such as sympathetic nervous system, renin angiotensin aldosterone system, growth factors, inflammatory factors and insulin resistance.
