LEPTIN EFFECTS ON , THYROID HORMONES AND SOME BIOCHEMICAL PARAMETERS OF FEMALE RABBITS (LEPUS CUNICULUS) SERUM.
Thirty local female rabbits were divided randomly and equally into three groups. The 1st group used as control which injected with phosphate buffer salin. The 2nd group was injected daily with leptin (5μg/animal) S/c. The 3rd group was injected subcutaneously daily with (10μg/animal) S/c. All groups...

| Summary: | Thirty local female rabbits were divided randomly and equally into three groups. The 1st
group used as control which injected with phosphate buffer salin. The 2nd group was injected
daily with leptin (5μg/animal) S/c. The 3rd group was injected subcutaneously daily with
(10μg/animal) S/c. All groups were treated for 60 days, and blood samples were collected every
15 days, serum was tested for T3, T4 hormones, total Cholesterol (TC), HDL (height density
lipo-protein) , LDL (low density lipo- protein), TG (triglycerides) and Body weight was taken
every 15 days during the experiment .
The result show significant (P≤0.05) decreased in body weight after administration of
leptin in two doses. Significant increased in Thyroid hormone after leptin administration. While
lipid profile (TC, TG, LDL, HDL,VLDL) show significant decreased with leptin treatment(5 and
10μg/animal) S/c. |
