Leptin receptor expression during the progression of endometrial carcinoma is correlated with estrogen and progesterone receptors
Introduction : The hormone leptin, which is produced in the adipose tissue, may influence tumorigenesis directly via its receptor (Ob-R). Thus, a role for Ob-R in endometrial carcinogenesis has been proposed. However, most studies neither included samples of the entire histological progression of en...
