As we work on the RRL of our study, some references suggest to use leptin sensitivity as a more appropriate term for leptin resistance. What can you suggest about it?
Leptin resistance is the more appropriate. Its generally defined as the failure of endogenous or exogenous leptin to promote anticipated salutary metabolic outcomes in states of over-nutrition or obesity, although the hormone's inability to promote desired responses in specific situations results from multiple molecular, neural, behavioral, and environmental mechanisms.
