Patent abstract
The present invention relates to an antagonist or inhibitor of leptin signaling via the leptin receptor. The leptin antagonist binds to the leptin receptor, but is unable to induce JAK-STAT signal transduction via the leptin receptor. By binding to the leptin receptor, the leptin antagonist impairs binding of leptin to the leptin receptor and blocks leptin signaling.
