Obesity and Leptin
2010 Albert Lasker award
Douglas Coleman Jeffrey M. Friedman
For the discovery of leptin, a hormone that regulates appetite and body weight—a breakthrough that opened obesity research to molecular exploration.

ob lacks a blood-borne satiety factor (leptin)
db overproduce a blood-borne satiety factor, but un-responsive(defect in leptin receptor)(feedback regulation)

Congenital leptin deficiency is associated with severe early-onset obesity in humansMontague et al (1997) Nature 387:903-908
We have examined two severely obese children who are members of the same highly consanguineous pedigree. Their serum leptin levels were very low despite their markedly elevated fat mass and, in both, a homozygous frame-shift mutation involving the deletion of a single guanine nucleotide in codon 133 of the gene for leptin was found.
A mutation in the human leptin receptor gene causes obesity and pituitary dysfunctionClement et al (1998) Nature 392: 398-401
Here we describe a homozygous mutation in the human leptin receptor gene that results in a truncated leptin receptor lacking both the transmembrane and the intracellular domains. In addition to their early-onset morbid obesity, patients homozygous for this mutation have no pubertal development and their secretion of growth hormone and thyrotropin is reduced.
