The recently discovered peptide hormone ghrelin mainly produced in gastric oxyntic cells may act as a counterpart to leptin in the regulation of food intake and fat utilization. Leptin, involved in the stimulation of proinflammatory cytokines and catabolic energy balance, is elevated in patients with liver cirrhosis. In the present study, we evaluated serum ghrelin and bound leptin levels in patients with primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) in relation to C-peptide and glucose concentration.
