Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

Mice with deletion of the O-GlcNAcase gene, either via whole-body heterozygous deletion or through adipocyte-targeted homozygous deletion, exhibited increased O-GlcNAc levels in adipose tissue and increased leptin levels that were inhibited by iron.
Of note, iron increased the occupancy of pCREB and decreased the occupancy of O-GlcNAcylated CREB on the leptin promoter.
The increased leptin levels induced by glucosamine were susceptible to the inhibition by iron , but in the case of OGT inhibition, iron did not further decrease leptin.

Treatment of 3T3-L1 adipocytes with iron decreased leptin mRNA in a dose-dependent manner.

In this issue of the JCI, Gao and colleagues demonstrate an inverse relationship between adipocyte iron and leptin that is mediated by iron-dependent activation of cAMP-responsive element binding protein (CREB), the transcription factor that represses leptin transcription.
It has been proposed that iron influences the satiety hormone leptin ; however, a direct link between iron and leptin has remained elusive.
