Objective: To study the day-night variation of omentin-1 levels and assess whether leptin, and/or short-and long-term energy deprivation alter circulating omentin-1 levels via cytokines. Design and Methods Omentin-1 levels were measured hourly in serum samples from six healthy men to evaluate for day-night variation. To study effects of acute energy deprivation and of leptin administration, eight healthy subjects were studied in the fasting state for 72 hours with administration of either placebo or metreleptin in physiological replacement doses. We evaluated the effect of leptin in pharmacological doses on serum omentin-1 and cytokine levels, as well as on omentin-1 levels in ex vivo omental adipose tissue, in fifteen healthy volunteers. To study the effect of chronic energy deprivation and weight loss on omentin-1 levels we followed eighteen obese subjects for 12 months who underwent bariatric surgery. Results: There is no day-night variation in omentin-1 levels. Short-term and chronic energy deprivation as well as ex vivo leptin administration and physiological replacement doses of leptin do not alter omentin-1 levels, whereas pharmacologic doses of metreleptin reduce omentin-1 levels whereas levels of TNF-α receptor II and IL-6 tend to increase. Conclusions: Omentin-1 levels are reduced by pharmacological doses of metreleptin independent of effects on cytokine levels.Other Sources
