Leptin, a protein with a cytokine-like structure, is produced predominantly by adipocytes. It appears to play a key role in immune responses by increasing the secretion of Th1 and pro-inflammatory cytokines. As fat-wrapping is a characteristic feature of Crohn's disease (CD), and as increased leptin levels have been reported in animal models of intestinal inflammation, this study investigated whether mesenteric adipose tissue could be a source of leptin in human inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
