Description
Obese protein (leptin), hormon izlučen iz masti, ima središnju ulogu u kontroli tjelesne debljine. Genetski defekti, koji dovode do nedostatka obese proteina (ob/ob miševi) ili otpornosti prema obese proteinu (ob), (db/db miševi, fa/fa štakori), u obadva slučaja uzrokuju tešku debljinu (Zhang et al., Nature 372, 425-431 [1994]; Lee et al., Nature 379, 623-635 [1996]; Chen et al., Cell 84, 546-549 [1996]. Kod ob/ob miševa i WT miševa (Campfield et al., Science 269, 546-549 [1995]; Haalas et al., Science 269, 543-546 [1995]; Pelleymounter et al., Science 269, 540-543 [1995] davanjem rekombinantnog ob proteina smanjuje se uzimanje hrane i povisuje potrošnja energije. Učinke smanjenja tjelesne težine slično se posreduje s receptorom signalizirajućeg leptina u hipotalamusu (Tartaglia et al., Cell 83, 1263-1271 [1995]. Obese protein (leptin), a hormone secreted from fat, plays a central role in controlling body fat. Genetic defects, leading to obes protein deficiency (ob/ob mice) or resistance to obes protein (ob), (db/db mice, fa/fa rats), in both cases cause severe obesity (Zhang et al., Nature 372 , 425-431 [1994]; Lee et al., Nature 379, 623-635 [1996]; Chen et al., Cell 84, 546-549 [1996]. In ob/ob mice and WT mice (Campfield et al ., Science 269, 546-549 [1995]; Haalas et al., Science 269, 543-546 [1995]; Pelleymounter et al., Science 269, 540-543 [1995] administration of recombinant ob protein reduces food intake and increases energy expenditure.The effects of reducing body weight are similarly mediated by the signaling leptin receptor in the hypothalamus (Tartaglia et al., Cell 83, 1263-1271 [1995).
Sada su otkrivene ob mutante s in vivo antagonističkim svojstvima. Davanje takovih mutanti ima za posljedicu progresivno smanjenje tjelesne težine. Ob mutante se stoga mogu upotrijebiti terapeutski za poremećaje koji prate kronične bolesti i poremećaje mršavljenja, kao što je anoreksija i kaheksija, gdje je poželjan porast težine. Ob mutants with in vivo antagonistic properties have now been discovered. Administration of such mutants results in a progressive reduction in body weight. Ob mutants can therefore be used therapeutically for disorders accompanying chronic disease and weight loss disorders, such as anorexia and cachexia, where weight gain is desirable.
Predloženi izum osigurava stoga mutante s normalnim djelovanjem vezanja receptora u kompeticijskom ispitivanju i s nesposobnošću prevođenja bioloških signala. Prednosne ob mutante predloženog izuma jesu one koje uključuju SEQ ID No: 1, pri čemu se na položaju 127 Ser nalazi Asp ili na položaju 128 Arg je Gln, s oznakama S127D, odnosno R128Q. The proposed invention therefore provides mutants with normal receptor binding activity in the competition assay and with an inability to translate biological signals. Preferred ob mutants of the proposed invention are those that include SEQ ID No: 1, where Asp is located at position 127 Ser or Arg is Gln at position 128, with the designations S127D and R128Q, respectively.
Mutante predloženog izuma na položaju 127 ili 128 mogu sadržavati aminokiselinske ostatke različite od Asp, odnosno Gln, ako takova supstitucija općenito ne mijenja njihovo djelovanje vezanja i nesposobnost prevođenja bioloških signala. Aminokiselinski ostaci na položaju 127, odnosno 128 mogu se odabrati iz skupine α-amino kiselina općenito pronađenih u prirodi, osim aminokiselinskih ostataka Ser i Arg. The mutants of the proposed invention at position 127 or 128 may contain amino acid residues other than Asp or Gln, respectively, if such substitution does not generally change their binding activity and inability to translate biological signals. The amino acid residues at position 127 and 128 can be selected from the group of α-amino acids generally found in nature, except for the amino acid residues Ser and Arg.
Ob mutante predloženog izuma mogu sadržavati specifične sekvence, koje se ponajprije vežu na afinitetan noseći materijal. Primjeri takovih sekvenci jesu sekvence koje sadrže najmanje dva susjedna histidinska ostatka (s tim u vezi vidi Europski patent br. 282 042). Takove sekvence vežu se selektivno na smole helata nitrilo-trioctena kiselina-nikla (Hochuli i Döbeli, Biol. Chem. Hoppe-Seyler 368, 748 [1987]; Europski patent br. 253 303). Ob mutante, koje sadrže takovu specifičnu sekvencu, mogu se stoga selektivno izdvojiti iz preostalih polipeptida. Specifičnu sekvencu može se povezati na C-završetak ili na N-završetak aminokiselinske sekvence ob mutante. Ob mutants of the proposed invention may contain specific sequences, which preferentially bind to the affinity support material. Examples of such sequences are sequences containing at least two contiguous histidine residues (in this regard, see European Patent No. 282,042). Such sequences bind selectively to nitrile-triacetic acid-nickel chelate resins (Hochuli and Döbeli, Biol. Chem. Hoppe-Seyler 368, 748 [1987]; European Patent No. 253,303). Ob mutants, which contain such a specific sequence, can therefore be selectively isolated from the remaining polypeptides. The specific sequence can be linked to the C-terminus or to the N-terminus of the amino acid sequence of the ob mutant.
Ob mutante također mogu imati jednu ili više kemijskih jedinica povezanih na njihove aminokiselinske sekvence, uključiv vodotopive polimere, kao što je polietilen glikol. Derivati derivatizirani s polietilen glikolom mogu biti mono-, di-, tri- ili tetrapegilirani, npr. N-terminalno monopegilirani. Prednosni pegilirani derivati ob mutante predloženog izuma uključuju ob mutante koje sadrže SEQ ID No:1, gdje se na položaju 127 Ser nalazi Asp ili se na položaju 128 nalazi Gln. Ob mutants may also have one or more chemical units attached to their amino acid sequences, including water-soluble polymers, such as polyethylene glycol. Derivatives derivatized with polyethylene glycol may be mono-, di-, tri- or tetrapegylated, eg N-terminally monopegylated. Preferred pegylated derivatives of ob mutants of the present invention include ob mutants comprising SEQ ID No:1, where Asp is present at position 127 Ser or Gln is present at position 128.
Predloženi izum također daje DNA sekvence koje kodiraju za ob mutante predloženog izuma, vektore ekspresije koji sadrže te DNA sekvence, stanice domaćine koje sadrže takove vektore za proizvodnju ob mutante i postupke za proizvodnju takovih DNA sekvenci, rekombinantne vektore i stanice domaćine. Također su opisane metode za ekspresiju, izolaciju i čišćenje ob mutanti. The proposed invention also provides DNA sequences coding for ob mutants of the proposed invention, expression vectors containing these DNA sequences, host cells containing such vectors for producing ob mutants and methods for producing such DNA sequences, recombinant vectors and host cells. Methods for expression, isolation and purification of ob mutants are also described.
Budući da je cijela DNA sekvenca gena, koja kodira za prirodni ob protein (u nastavku se također odnosi na humani leptin, lH), poznata (Zhang et al., supra), aminokiselinske sekvence koje kodiraju za ob mutante predloženog izuma mogu se kemijski sintetizirati primjenom standardnim metoda poznatih u struci, ponajprije metodom na krutoj fazi, kao što su metode Merrifielda (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 55, 2149-2154 [1963]). Alternativno, ob mutante predloženog izuma mogu se proizvesti primjenom metoda DNA rekombinantne tehnologije (Maniatis et al. u “Molecular Cloning - A Laboratory Manual”, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory [1982]). Ponajprije, DNA sekvenca, koja korida za ob mutantu, preoizvedena je iz DNA koja kodira za prirodni ob protein i zatim je ugrađena u prikladni vektor ekspresije koji proizvodi potrebne signale ekspresije. Since the entire DNA sequence of the gene encoding the natural ob protein (hereinafter also referred to as human leptin, lH) is known (Zhang et al., supra), the amino acid sequences encoding the ob mutants of the present invention can be chemically synthesized using standard methods known in the art, primarily the solid phase method, such as the methods of Merrifield (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 55, 2149-2154 [1963]). Alternatively, the ob mutants of the proposed invention can be produced using DNA recombinant technology methods (Maniatis et al. in "Molecular Cloning - A Laboratory Manual", Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory [1982]). First, the DNA sequence corresponding to the ob mutant is cloned from the DNA encoding the native ob protein and then inserted into a suitable expression vector that produces the necessary expression signals.
Vektori ekspresije prikladni za upotrebu u prokariotskim stanicama domaćinima navedeni su, na primjer, u gore spomenutoj knjizi Maniatisa et al. Posebno prikladni vektori jesu plazmidi porodice pDS (Bujard et al., Methods in Enzymology, eds. Wu i Grossmann, Academic Press, Inc., Vol. 155, 416-433 [1987]). Expression vectors suitable for use in prokaryotic host cells are listed, for example, in the aforementioned Maniatis et al. Particularly suitable vectors are plasmids of the pDS family (Bujard et al., Methods in Enzymology, eds. Wu and Grossmann, Academic Press, Inc., Vol. 155, 416-433 [1987]).
Takovi prokariotski vektori ekspresije, koji sadrže DNA sekvence koje kodiraju za ob mutante predloženog izuma, operativno povezane sa sekvencom koja kontrolira ekspresiju, mogu se ugraditi u svaku prikladnu prokariotsku stanicu domaćina primjenom uobičajenih metoda. Izbor prikladne prokariotske stanice domaćina određuju raličiti faktori, koji su dobro poznati u struci. Tako, na primjer, određenu ulogu ima kompatibilnost s odabranim vektorom, toksičnost proizvoda ekspresije, značajke ekspresije, nužnost bioloških sigurnosnih mjera i cijena i mora se naći kompromis između svih tih faktora. Such prokaryotic expression vectors, containing DNA sequences encoding the ob mutants of the present invention, operably linked to a sequence controlling expression, can be incorporated into any suitable prokaryotic host cell using conventional methods. The choice of a suitable prokaryotic host cell is determined by various factors, which are well known in the art. Thus, for example, compatibility with the chosen vector, toxicity of the expression product, expression features, the necessity of biological safety measures and cost all play a role, and a compromise must be found between all these factors.
Prikladni organizmi prokariotskih domaćina uključuju gram-negativne i gram-pozitivne bakterije, na primjer vrste E.coli i B.subtilis. Podvrste E.coli, koje se mogu upotrijebiti, jesu E.coli M15 (koju su kao podvrstu OZ 291 opisali Villarejo et al. u J. Bacteriol. 120. 466-474 [1974]) i E.coli W3110 [ATTC No. 27325]. Uz to, međutim, osim gore spomenute podvrste E.coli, također se mogu upotrijebiti i druge općenito dostupne podvrste E.coli, kao što su E.coli 294 (ATCC No. 31446) i E.coli RR1 (ATCC No. 31343). Suitable prokaryotic host organisms include Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, for example E. coli and B. subtilis species. E.coli subspecies that can be used are E.coli M15 (described as subspecies OZ 291 by Villarejo et al. in J. Bacteriol. 120. 466-474 [1974]) and E.coli W3110 [ATTC No. 27325]. In addition, however, in addition to the above-mentioned E.coli subspecies, other commonly available E.coli subspecies such as E.coli 294 (ATCC No. 31446) and E.coli RR1 (ATCC No. 31343) can also be used. .
Vektori ekspresije, prikladni za upotrebu u stanicama domaćinima od sisavaca, uključuju ali nisu ograničeni samo na pBC12MI, pBC12BI, pSV2dhFr, p91023(B), pcDV1, pRSVcat, pGA291, pGA293, pGA296, pBC12/HIV/IL-2 i pGA300. Expression vectors suitable for use in mammalian host cells include, but are not limited to, pBC12MI, pBC12BI, pSV2dhFr, p91023(B), pcDV1, pRSVcat, pGA291, pGA293, pGA296, pBC12/HIV/IL-2, and pGA300.
Takovi vektori se ponajprije uvode transfekcijom u prikladne stanice domaćine od sisavaca. Such vectors are preferably introduced by transfection into suitable mammalian host cells.
Stanice domaćini od sisavaca koje se mogu upotrijebiti uključuju, npr., humane Hela, H9 i Jurkat stanice, mišje NIH3T3 i C127 stanice, CV1 stanice afričkog zelenog majmuna, prepeličje stanice QC1-3, stanice ovarija kineskog hrčka (CHO), mišje L stanice i stanične linije COS. Mammalian host cells that can be used include, e.g., human Hela, H9 and Jurkat cells, mouse NIH3T3 and C127 cells, African green monkey CV1 cells, quail QC1-3 cells, Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, mouse L cells and COS cell lines.
Način na koji se provodi ekspresiju mutanti predloženog izuma ovisi o odabranom sistemu vektora ekspresije i stanice domaćina. The way in which the mutants of the proposed invention are expressed depends on the selected expression vector system and the host cell.
Obično, organizam prokariotskog domaćina, koji sadrži željeni vektor ekspresije, raste pod uvjetima koji su optimalni za rast prokariotskog organizma domaćina. Na kraju eksponencijalnog rasta, kad porast broja stanica u jedinici vremena opada, inducira se ekspresiju željene ob mutane, tj. transkribira se DNA koja kodira za željenu ob mutantu i transkribirana mRNA se translatira. Indukcija se može provesti dodavanjem inducera ili depresora u medij za rast ili mijenjanjem fizičkog parametra, npr. promjenom temperature. Typically, the prokaryotic host organism, which contains the desired expression vector, is grown under conditions that are optimal for the growth of the prokaryotic host organism. At the end of exponential growth, when the increase in the number of cells per unit of time decreases, the expression of the desired ob mutant is induced, i.e. the DNA that codes for the desired ob mutant is transcribed and the transcribed mRNA is translated. Induction can be carried out by adding an inducer or depressor to the growth medium or by changing a physical parameter, eg by changing the temperature.
Sisavčeve stanice domaćini, koje sadrže željeni vektor ekspresije, rastu pod uvjetima koji su optimalni za rast sisavčevih stanica domaćina. Tipičan vektor ekspresije sadrži promotorski elemet, koji posreduje transkripciju mRNA, proteinsku kodnu sekvencu i signale potrebne za učinkovitu terminaciju i poliadenilaciju transkripcije. Dodatni elementi mogu uključiti sredstva za pojačavanje i interventne sekvence povezane pomoću veznih strana donora i akceptora. Mammalian host cells containing the desired expression vector are grown under conditions that are optimal for growth of the mammalian host cells. A typical expression vector contains a promoter element, which mediates mRNA transcription, a protein coding sequence, and signals necessary for efficient termination and polyadenylation of transcription. Additional elements may include amplification agents and intervening sequences linked by donor and acceptor linkers.
Većina vektora, koji se upotrebljavaju za prolaznu ekspresiju date kodne sekvence, nose SV40 izvor replikacije, koji im omogućuje replikaciju do visokih brojeva u stanicama (npr. COS stanicama), koji bitno umnažaju T antigen potreban za iniciranje sinteze virusne DNA. Prolazna ekspresija nije ograničena na COS stanice. U tu svrhu može se upotrijebiti svaka stanična linija sisavca koja se može transfektirati. Elementi koji kontroliraju veličinu transkripcije uključuju rane ili kasne promotore od SV40 i dugačka terminalna ponavljanja (LTRs) iz retrovirusa, npr. RSV, HIV, HTLVI. Međutim, također se mogu upotrijebiti i stanični signali (npr. promotor humanog-β-aktina). Most vectors, which are used for transient expression of a given coding sequence, carry an SV40 replication source, which allows them to replicate to high numbers in cells (eg COS cells), which significantly amplify the T antigen required to initiate viral DNA synthesis. Transient expression is not restricted to COS cells. Any transfectable mammalian cell line can be used for this purpose. Elements controlling the size of transcription include early or late promoters from SV40 and long terminal repeats (LTRs) from retroviruses, eg RSV, HIV, HTLVI. However, cellular signals (eg the human β-actin promoter) can also be used.
Alternativno, stabilne stanične linije koje nose željeni gen ugrađen u kromosomu, mogu se odabrati nakon ko-transfekcije s markerom koji se može selektirati, kao što su gpt, dhfr, neomicin ili higromicin. Alternatively, stable cell lines carrying the desired gene embedded in the chromosome can be selected after co-transfection with a selectable marker, such as gpt, dhfr, neomycin or hygromycin.
Tranfektirani gen se sada može pojačati tako da umnaža velike količine stranog proteina. Marker, koji se može upotrijebiti za razvoj linija stanica koje nose više od 1000 kopija traženog gena, je dihidrofolat reduktaza (DHRFR). Stanice sisavca rastu u rastućim količinama metotreksata. Zatim, kad se metotreksat povuče, staničn linije sadrže pojačan gen ugrađen u kromosom. The transfected gene can now be amplified to amplify large amounts of the foreign protein. A marker that can be used to develop cell lines carrying more than 1000 copies of the desired gene is dihydrofolate reductase (DHRFR). Mammalian cells grow in increasing amounts of methotrexate. Then, when the methotrexate is withdrawn, the cell lines contain an amplified gene embedded in the chromosome.
Za proizvodnju ob mutante predloženog izuma također se može upotrijebiti sistem bakulovirusa i stanica insekta (što se tiče literature vidi Luclow i Summers, Bio/Technology 6, 47-55 [1988]. Ob mutante proizvedene u stanicama insekta, inficirane s rekombinantnim bakulovirusom, mogu se podvrći post-translacijskoj obradi koja uključuje N-glikozilaciju (Smith et al., Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. USA 82, 8404-8408) i O-glikozilaciju (Thompsen et al., 12. International Herpesvirus Workshop, University of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania). A baculovirus-insect cell system can also be used to produce the ob mutants of the present invention (for literature see Luclow and Summers, Bio/Technology 6, 47-55 [1988]. Ob mutants produced in insect cells infected with recombinant baculovirus can undergoes post-translational processing involving N-glycosylation (Smith et al., Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. USA 82, 8404-8408) and O-glycosylation (Thompsen et al., 12th International Herpesvirus Workshop, University of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania).
Za izolaciju malih količina ob mutanti umnoženih u prokariotskim stanicama domaćina za analitičke svrhe, npr. za elektroforezu na poliakrilamidnom gelu, stanice domaćina se mogu probiti obradom s deterdžentom, npr. s natrijevim dodecil sulfatom (SDS). Veće količine tih mutanti mogu se dobiti mehaničkom obradom (Charm et al., Meth. Enzymol. 22, 476-556 [1971]), enzimski (lizozimska obrada) ili kemijskom obradom (s deterdžentom, ureom ili gvanidinijevim hidrokloridom, itd.), zatim primjenom poznatih metoda, npr. centrifugiranjem pri različitim gravitacijama, taloženjem s amonijevim sulfatom, dijalizom (pod normalnim tlakom ili pod smanjenim tlakom), preparacijskim izoelektričnim fokusiranjem, preparativnom gel elektroforezom ili pomoću različitih kromatografksih metoda kao što je gel filtracija, visoko učinska tekućinska kromatografija (HPLC), kromatografija s izmjenom iona, kromatografija reverznih faza i afinitetna kromatografija (npr. na Sepharose®Blu Cl-6B ili na nosačem vezanim monoklonskim antitijelima usmjerenim protiv urođenog ob proteina i ob mutanti predloženog izuma). To isolate small amounts of ob mutants propagated in prokaryotic host cells for analytical purposes, eg, for polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the host cells can be disrupted by treatment with a detergent, eg, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). Larger amounts of these mutants can be obtained by mechanical treatment (Charm et al., Meth. Enzymol. 22, 476-556 [1971]), enzymatic (lysozyme treatment) or chemical treatment (with detergent, urea or guanidinium hydrochloride, etc.), then using known methods, e.g. centrifugation at different gravities, precipitation with ammonium sulfate, dialysis (under normal pressure or under reduced pressure), preparative isoelectric focusing, preparative gel electrophoresis or using different chromatographic methods such as gel filtration, high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), ion-exchange chromatography, reverse-phase chromatography and affinity chromatography (eg on Sepharose®Blu Cl-6B or on carrier-linked monoclonal antibodies directed against native ob protein and ob mutants of the present invention).
Ob mutante umnožene u stanicama domaćinima od sisavca ili u sistemu vektora bakulovirus-stanica insekta, mogu se izolirati iz medija za stanice domaćina primjenom standardnih metoda za čišćenje proteina. Ob mutants propagated in mammalian host cells or in the baculovirus-insect cell vector system can be isolated from host cell media using standard protein purification methods.
Ob mutante se mogu upotrijebiti za pripravljanje farmaceutskih sastava i za liječenje poremećaja koji prate kromične bolesti, npr. dugotrajne anoreksije, infekcijske anoreksije, kaheksije i poremećaja mršavljenja, npr. raka i AIDS-a i može se provjeriti njihovu primjenljivost u pacijenata s anorektičnom neurozom. Ob mutants can be used for the preparation of pharmaceutical compositions and for the treatment of disorders accompanying chromic diseases, eg, long-term anorexia, infectious anorexia, cachexia and weight loss disorders, eg, cancer and AIDS, and their applicability in patients with anorexic neurosis can be tested.
One se mogu dati u farmaceutski prihvatljivim oralnim, injekcijskim ili površinskim sastavima i postupcima. Doziranje i učestalost doza mogu biti jednaki onima koja se sada koriste u kliničkim aplikacijama prirodnih ob proteina. Farmaceutski sastavi predloženog izuma sadrže ob mutante, po potrebi zajedno s monoklonskim antitijelom protiv ob mutante predloženog izuma i kompatibilan, farmaceutski prihvatljiv noseći materijal. Može se upotrijebiti bilo koji uobičajen noseći materijal. Noseći materijal može biti organski ili anorganski koji je prikladan za enteralno, perkutano ili parenteralno davanje. Prikladni nosači uključuju vodu, želatinu, gumu arabiku, laktozu, škrob, magnezijev stearat, talk, biljna ulja, polialkilen glikole, petrolej žele i slično. Dodaci, kao sredstva za korekciju okusa, konzervansi, stabilizatori, emulgatori, puferi i slično, mogu se dodati u skladu s prihvaćenom praksom farmaceutskog smješavanja. They can be administered in pharmaceutically acceptable oral, injectable or topical formulations and procedures. The dosage and frequency of doses may be equivalent to those currently used in clinical applications of natural ob proteins. The pharmaceutical compositions of the proposed invention contain ob mutants, optionally together with a monoclonal antibody against the ob mutant of the proposed invention and a compatible, pharmaceutically acceptable carrier material. Any common carrier material can be used. The carrier material can be organic or inorganic suitable for enteral, percutaneous or parenteral administration. Suitable carriers include water, gelatin, gum arabic, lactose, starch, magnesium stearate, talc, vegetable oils, polyalkylene glycols, petroleum jelly, and the like. Additives, such as flavor enhancers, preservatives, stabilizers, emulsifiers, buffers and the like, may be added in accordance with accepted pharmaceutical compounding practice.
Farmaceutski pripravci se mogu izraditi na bilo koji uobičajen način koji uključuje: a) kruti oblik za oralno davanje kao što su tablete, kapsule, pilule, prašak, granule i slično; b) tekući oblik za oralno davanje kao što su otopine, sirupi, suspenzije, eliksiri i slično; c) pripravci za parenteralno davanje kao što su sterilne otopine, suspenzije ili emulzije; i d) pripravci za površinsko davanje kao što su otopine, suspenzije, pomasti, kreme, gel, mikronizirani puderi, aerosoli i slično. Farmaceutski pripravci se mogu sterilizirati i/ili mogu sadržavati dodatne tvari kao što su konzervansi, stabilizatori, sredstva za kvašenje, emulgatori, soli za mijenjanje osmotskog tlaka i/ili puferi.

Pharmaceutical preparations may be sterilized and/or may contain additional substances such as preservatives, stabilizers, wetting agents, emulsifiers, salts for changing osmotic pressure and/or buffers.
Parenteralni oblici doziranja mogu biti infuzijske ili injekcijske otopine koje se mogu ubrizgati intravenski ili intramuskularno. Ti pripravci također mogu sadržavati druge medicinski aktivne tvari. Dodaci, kao što su konzervansi, stabilizatori, emulgatori, puferi i slično, mogu se dodati u skladu s prihvaćenom praksom farmaceutskog smješavanja. Parenteral dosage forms can be infusion or injection solutions that can be injected intravenously or intramuscularly. These preparations may also contain other medically active substances. Additives, such as preservatives, stabilizers, emulsifiers, buffers and the like, may be added in accordance with accepted pharmaceutical compounding practice.
Nadalje, mogu se uzgojiti antitijela protiv ob mutanti predloženog izuma. Ta antitijela se mogu upotrijebiti na poznati način za dijagnostičke ili terapeutske svrhe, u svrhu čišćenja, i za pojačavanje bioloških učinaka ob mutanti. Takova antitijela mogu se proizvesti ubrizgavanjem sisavcu ili ptici količine formulacije cjepiva koja sadrži ob mutantu predloženog izuma i kompatibilan farmaceutski nosač dovoljne da izazove stvaranje antitijela protiv rečene mutante. Odgovarajuća potrebna količina ob mutante stručnjaku je poznata ili ju može odrediti rutinskim pokusom. Kako se rabi u svezi s ovim izumom, pojam “farmaceutski nosač” može značiti standardne sastave koji su prikladni za davanje ljudima ili tipična pomoćna sredstva koja se upotrebljavaju u životinjskim cjepivima. Furthermore, antibodies can be raised against ob mutants of the proposed invention. These antibodies can be used in a known manner for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes, for purification purposes, and for enhancing the biological effects of ob mutants. Such antibodies may be produced by injecting a mammal or bird with an amount of a vaccine formulation containing an ob mutant of the present invention and a compatible pharmaceutical carrier sufficient to induce antibody formation against said mutant. The appropriate required amount of ob mutant is known to the person skilled in the art or can be determined by routine experimentation. As used in connection with the present invention, the term "pharmaceutical carrier" may mean standard compositions suitable for human administration or typical adjuvants used in animal vaccines.
Prikladne pomoćne tvari za cijepljenje životinja uključuju ali nisu ograničene samo na Freundov cjelovit ili necjelovit dodatak (nije prikladan za ljusku upotrebu ili za goveda), dodatak 65, koji sadrži kikirikijevo ulje, manidni monooleat i aluminijev fosfat i alaun; površinski aktivna sredstva kao heksadecilamin, oktadecilamin, lizolecitin, dimetildioktadecilamonijev bromid, N1-N-N-dioktadecil-N’-N-bis(2-hidroksietilpropandiamin), metoksi-heksadecilglicerol, i pluronski polioli; polianione kao piran, dekstran sulfat, poli IC, poliakrilnu kiselinu, karbopol; peptide kao muramil dipeptid, dimetilglicin, tuftsin; uljne emulzije; i TiterMax. Topive ob mutante također se mogu dati nakon ugradnje u liposome ili druge mikroorganizme, ili nakon konjugacije na polisaharide, druge proteine ili druge polimere ili u kombinaciji s Quil-A, da se oblikuju “Iscoms” (imunostimulacijki kompleksi) (Morein et al., Nature 308, 457 [1984]). Prednost se daje dodatku TiterMax (Vaxcell Inc., 3000 Northwoods Parkway, Norcross, GA 30071, USA). Suitable adjuvants for animal vaccination include, but are not limited to, Freund's complete or incomplete supplement (not suitable for shell use or for cattle), supplement 65, containing peanut oil, mannide monooleate, and aluminum phosphate and alum; surfactants such as hexadecylamine, octadecylamine, lysolecithin, dimethyldioctadecylammonium bromide, N1-N-N-dioctadecyl-N'-N-bis(2-hydroxyethylpropanediamine), methoxy-hexadecylglycerol, and pluronic polyols; polyanions such as pyran, dextran sulfate, poly IC, polyacrylic acid, carbopol; peptides such as muramyl dipeptide, dimethylglycine, tuftsin; oil emulsions; and TiterMax. Soluble ob mutants can also be administered after incorporation into liposomes or other microorganisms, or after conjugation to polysaccharides, other proteins or other polymers or in combination with Quil-A, to form “Iscoms” (immunostimulatory complexes) (Morein et al., Nature 308, 457 [1984]). TiterMax supplement (Vaxcell Inc., 3000 Northwoods Parkway, Norcross, GA 30071, USA) is preferred.
Tipično, početno cijepljenje se vrši nekoliko tjedana kasnije s jednim ili više “booster” cjepiva, čiji čisti učinak je proizvodnja visokih titara antitijela protiv ob mutanti, koja se zatim mogu pobrati na uobičajen način. Typically, the initial vaccination is given several weeks later with one or more “booster” vaccines, the net effect of which is to produce high titers of antibodies against ob mutants, which can then be harvested in the usual way.
Druga metoda se sastoji u primjeni poznatog Koehlerovog i Milstein-ovog postupka za proizvodnju nomoklonskih antitijela. Da se pronađu različita monoklonska antitijela, koja su usmjerena protiv istog antigena ali protiv različitih epitopa, može se primijeniti metodu po Stähli et al. (J. of Immunological Methods 32, 297-304 [1980]. The second method consists in applying the well-known Koehler and Milstein procedure for the production of nomoclonal antibodies. To find different monoclonal antibodies, which are directed against the same antigen but against different epitopes, the method according to Stähli et al. can be applied. (J. of Immunological Methods 32, 297-304 [1980].
Konačno, mutante predloženog izuma se mogu upotrijebiti za provjeravanje metoda identifikacije ob proteinskih agonista. Finally, the mutants of the present invention can be used to test methods of identifying ob protein agonists.
Također je otkriveno da upotreba leptina ili ob mutanti predloženog izuma u kombinaciji s antitijelima protiv leptina, ponajprije u kombinaciji s monoklonskim antitijelima protiv leptina, pojačava učinke tih proteina.

Identifikacija ob mutanti Identification of mutants
Za identifikaciju pojedinačnih ostataka uključenih u vezanje receptora, u humanoj ob proteinskoj cDNA stvoreno je 37 jednostrukih mutacija (od koji je 29 posljedica promjene ostataka s nabojem u ostatke bez naboja) pomoću prilagođenog protokola i upotrebom komercijalno dostupne opreme (Transformer, Clontech) i uvedene su u plazmid pSVSport (BRL). Nakon transfekcije u stanicama COS-1, ekspresija mutanti u staničnom supernatantu kvantificirana je pomoću ELISA, primjenom kombinacije mAbs i polikonskog zečjeg antiseruma. To identify the individual residues involved in receptor binding, 37 single mutations (of which 29 resulted from the change of charged residues to non-charged residues) were created in the human ob protein cDNA using a customized protocol and using commercially available equipment (Transformer, Clontech) and introduced into plasmid pSVSport (BRL). After transfection in COS-1 cells, expression of the mutants in the cell supernatant was quantified by ELISA, using a combination of mAbs and polyclonal rabbit antiserum.
Sve mutante su ispitane kompeticijskim pokusom mjerenjem premještanja 125J hL (pripravljen po Jodogen metodi, Pierce Chemical Co.) s membrane koja drži mišji leptin receptor kratkog oblika (mLRsh) (Targaglia et al., Cell 83, 1263-1271 [1995]), umnožen na površini stanica COS-1. 2x106 stanica/ml tranfektiranih stanica COS-1 inkubirano je 3-5 sati pri 4oC s 1 nM 125J hL, zajedno s različitim koncentracijama (2,5 ng/ml - 5 µg/ml) neobilježenog divljeg tipa hL ili ob mutanti. Vezani ligand je odvojen od onog bez radioaktivnosti centrifugiranjem kroz sloj ftalatnog ulja i izračunata je γ emisija taloga. Sve otopine su pripravljene u Dulbeccocom modificiranom Eagle-ovom mediju (GibcoBrl) nadopunjenom s 10% FCS, glutaminom i gentamicinom. All mutants were tested in a competition experiment by measuring the displacement of 125J hL (prepared by the Iodogen method, Pierce Chemical Co.) from a membrane holding the mouse leptin receptor short form (mLRsh) (Targaglia et al., Cell 83, 1263-1271 [1995]), amplified on the surface of COS-1 cells. 2x106 cells/ml transfected COS-1 cells were incubated for 3-5 hours at 4oC with 1 nM 125J hL, together with various concentrations (2.5 ng/ml - 5 µg/ml) of unlabeled wild-type hL or ob mutants. The bound ligand was separated from the non-radioactive one by centrifugation through a bed of phthalate oil and the γ emission of the precipitate was calculated. All solutions were prepared in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (GibcoBrl) supplemented with 10% FCS, glutamine and gentamicin.
Biološko djelovanje ocijenjeno je pokusom in vivo na osnovi proliferacije stanica BA/F3 ovisnih o leptinu. BA/F3 stanice tranfektirane su s konstruktom koji kodira kimernu membranu, koja drži receptor konstruiran fuzijom ekstracelularnih i transmembranskih domena mišjeg leptin receptora s intracelularnim dijelom humanog βc lanca (c stoji za zajednički, e. common), podjedinicom koja je nužno potrebna za transdukciju signala GM-CFS/IL-3/IL-5 (Tavernier et al., Cell 66, 1175-1184 [1991]). Nakon selekcije dobiveni su klonovi čiji rast ovisi o leptinu. Za sniženje pozadine proliferacije može se dodati 21F3, monoklonski koji je bio razvijen protiv srodnog βc lanca (spominje se kao AIC2B; taj lanac je konstitutivno prisutan u stanicama BA/F3). Nakon inkubacije preko noći pri 37oC bez faktora rasta (= leptin), o leptinu ovisne stanice BA/F3 (200 µl stanica; 1x103 stanica/točki) inkubirano je u mikrotitarskim 96-jamičnim pločama s različitim koncentracijama divljeg tipa hL ili ob mutanti (0,05-100 ng/ml). Nakon 72 sata dodano je na 4 sata 0,5 µCi 3H timidina. Stanice su pobrane i obilježene su izbrojene. The biological activity was evaluated by an in vivo experiment based on the proliferation of leptin-dependent BA/F3 cells. BA/F3 cells were transfected with a construct encoding a chimeric membrane, which holds a receptor constructed by fusing the extracellular and transmembrane domains of the mouse leptin receptor with the intracellular part of the human βc chain (c stands for common, e. common), a subunit that is essential for signal transduction GM-CFS/IL-3/IL-5 (Tavernier et al., Cell 66, 1175-1184 [1991]). After selection, clones whose growth depends on leptin were obtained. 21F3, a monoclonal that was developed against the related βc chain (referred to as AIC2B; this chain is constitutively present in BA/F3 cells), can be added to reduce background proliferation. After overnight incubation at 37oC without growth factors (= leptin), leptin-dependent BA/F3 cells (200 µl cells; 1x103 cells/spot) were incubated in microtiter 96-well plates with different concentrations of wild-type hL or ob mutants (0 ,05-100 ng/ml). After 72 hours, 0.5 µCi 3H thymidine was added for 4 hours. Cells were harvested and labeled and counted.
Većina ob mutanti pokazuje normalno vezanje receptora i imaju slično biološko djelovanje kao divlji tip proteina. Međutim, četiri mutante, R20Q, D40N, S127D i R128Q imaju drugačija obilježja. Budući da daljnje detaljno istraživanje ovisi o raspoloživosti mnogo čišćeg proizvoda, četiri mutirana gena kao i divlji tip hL uvedeni su u vektor pVL1393 i kotransfekcijom s lineariziranom DNA bakulovirusa (Baculogold, PharmMingen) ugrađeni u genom virusa nuklearne polihedroze Autograpfa californica u Sf9 stanicama, kako su opisali Summers i Smith, G.E.A. [1987], Manual of Methods for Baculovirus Vectors and Insect Cell Culture Producers (Texas A & M University). Proteini su očišćeni iz medija za stanice insekta na koloni 2A5-mAb. ^istoća je ocijenjena na gelu Coomasie-stained SDS-PAA (Laemmli, Nature 227, 680-685 [1970]) dok su koncentracije proteina izmjerene po Bradfordu, Anal. Biochem, 72, 248-254 [1976], upotrebom BioRad opreme s BSA kao standardom. Leptinski proteini i ob mutante ispitani su pokusom premještanja (slika 1), kao i pokusom proliferacije BA/F3 (slika 2). Most ob mutants show normal receptor binding and have similar biological activity to the wild-type protein. However, four mutants, R20Q, D40N, S127D and R128Q have different features. Since further detailed investigation depends on the availability of a much purer product, the four mutated genes as well as the wild-type hL were introduced into the pVL1393 vector and cotransfected with linearized baculovirus DNA (Baculogold, PharmMingen) into the genome of Autograpfa californica nuclear polyhedrosis virus in Sf9 cells, as described by Summers and Smith, G.E.A. [1987], Manual of Methods for Baculovirus Vectors and Insect Cell Culture Producers (Texas A & M University). Proteins were purified from insect cell media on a 2A5-mAb column. The identity was assessed on a Coomasie-stained SDS-PAA gel (Laemmli, Nature 227, 680-685 [1970]) while protein concentrations were measured according to Bradford, Anal. Biochem, 72, 248-254 [1976], using BioRad equipment with BSA as standard. Leptin proteins and ob mutants were tested in the translocation experiment (Figure 1), as well as in the BA/F3 proliferation experiment (Figure 2).
Ispitivanje je omogućilo identifikaciju jednog ostatka uključenog u vezanje receptora, jer zamjena arginina na položaju 20 s glutaminom (R20Q) poništava svako premještanje 125J hL u kompeticijskom pokusu (slika 1). Druge očišćene mutante D40N, S127D i R128Q bile su stalno sposobne premjestiti radioaktivni ligand i u tom pogledu nisu se značajno razlikovale od divljeg tipa hL, ukazujući na normalno vezanje receptora. Međutim, kad su se mutante morale ispitati u modificiranom pokusu BA/F3, u usporedbi s divljim tipom hL, bila je pronađena smanjena biološka aktivnost (slika 2). Prema očekivanju, R20Q, mutanta nedostatne receptroske interakcije, nije pokazala biološki učinak; proliferacijsko djelovanje D40N bilo je smanjeno za pribl. 40%. Iznenađujuće, gotovo nikakav proliferacijski odgovor od S127D detektiran je na transfektiranim stanicama BA/F3, dok R128Q nisu pokazale biološko djelovanje čak niti pri koncentracji od 100 ngml. The assay enabled the identification of one residue involved in receptor binding, as replacement of arginine at position 20 with glutamine (R20Q) abolished any displacement of 125J hL in the competition experiment (Figure 1). Other purified mutants D40N, S127D, and R128Q were consistently able to translocate the radioligand and in this respect did not differ significantly from wild-type hL, indicating normal receptor binding. However, when the mutants had to be tested in a modified BA/F3 experiment, compared to wild type hL, a reduced biological activity was found (Fig. 2). As expected, R20Q, a mutant lacking receptor interaction, showed no biological effect; the proliferative activity of D40N was reduced by approx. 40%. Surprisingly, almost no proliferative response from S127D was detected in transfected BA/F3 cells, while R128Q showed no biological activity even at a concentration of 100 ngml.
Antagonistička svojstva ob mutanti S127D i R128Q bila su nadalje pokazana na BA/F3 stanicama ovisnim o proteinu, jer je proliferativni odgovor bio potpuno suzbijen u prisutnosti 10 ng/ml divljeg tipa hL. Antagonistic properties of ob mutants S127D and R128Q were further demonstrated in protein-dependent BA/F3 cells, as the proliferative response was completely suppressed in the presence of 10 ng/ml wild-type hL.

Biološki učinci R127D i R128Q in vivo na ob/ob miševima Biological effects of R127D and R128Q in vivo in ob/ob mice
Da se ocijene in vivo učinci mutanti, S127D, osnosno R128Q, divlji tip hL i PBS intraperitonealno (i.p) su ubrizgani u ob/ob miševe zajedno s mAb 2A5. U ob/ob miševe stare 6-8 tjedana, ubrizgano je 15 µg divljeg tipa hL, odnosno 15 µg S127D, 15 µg R128Q i PBS (kontrola). Injekcije su date dnevno i.p. tijekom 9 dana, dodatno s mAb 2A5 (1,8 mg po injekciji). Tjelesna težina mjerene je prije prve doze i u isto vrijeme svakog slijedećeg dana. Obrada s divljim tipom hL proteina dovela je do značajnog gubitka težine (do 1 g/dnevno), dok na životinja kojima su ubrizgane S127D, R128Q i PBS (slika 3) nije opažen nikakav značajan učinak. Suprotno tome, u tim slučajevima moglo se je opaziti lagani porast tjelesne težine. Prihvatljivo objašnjenje za tu pojavu je rast miševa starih osam tjedana tijekom provođenja pokusa. Uzevši zajedno, injekcije date ob/ob miševima nedvojbeno pokazuju biološku neaktivnost R128Q i S127D, činjenicu koja je potpuno u skladu s nedostatkom izazivanja in vitro proliferativnih odgovora na modificiranim Ba/F3 stanicama (slika 2). To evaluate the in vivo effects of the mutants, S127D, constitutively R128Q, wild-type hL and PBS were injected intraperitoneally (i.p) into ob/ob mice together with mAb 2A5. 6-8 week old ob/ob mice were injected with 15 µg wild-type hL, i.e. 15 µg S127D, 15 µg R128Q and PBS (control). Injections were given daily i.p. for 9 days, additionally with mAb 2A5 (1.8 mg per injection). Body weight was measured before the first dose and at the same time every following day. Treatment with wild-type hL protein resulted in significant weight loss (up to 1 g/day), whereas no significant effect was observed in animals injected with S127D, R128Q, and PBS (Fig. 3). On the contrary, a slight increase in body weight could be observed in these cases. An acceptable explanation for this phenomenon is the growth of the eight-week-old mice during the experiment. Taken together, the injections given to ob/ob mice clearly demonstrate the biological inactivity of R128Q and S127D, a fact that is fully consistent with the failure to elicit in vitro proliferative responses in modified Ba/F3 cells (Figure 2).

Biološki učinci R128Q in vivo na divljem tipu miševa Biological effects of R128Q in vivo in wild-type mice
Devet miševa C57/Bl6 starih 9-10 tjedana podijeljeni su u tri jednake skupine i dva puta dnevno (9.300 prije podne i 5.30 poslije podne) intraperitonealno im je ubrizgan divlji tip hL (100 µg po injekciji) i PBS (kontrola) u prisutnosti 1,38 mg antitijela 2A5 po injekciji. Tjelesna težina utvrđivana je svaki dan vaganjem prije prve injekcije u 9.30 prije podne. Nine 9-10-week-old C57/Bl6 mice were divided into three equal groups and injected intraperitoneally with wild-type hL (100 µg per injection) and PBS (control) twice a day (9.300 AM and 5.30 PM) in the presence of 1 .38 mg of 2A5 antibody per injection. Body weight was determined every day by weighing before the first injection at 9:30 AM.
Nakon 15 dana tjelesna težina životinja bila je pribl. 20% viša od njihove početne tjelesne težine (slika 4), a nakon obrade je bila zaustavljena i vratila se je na njihovu početnu težinu (slika 5). Neposredno nakon 15-dnevne obrade, životinje iz prvog pokusa (slika 4) bile su žrtvovane i secirane. Naslage abdominalne masnoće bile su jasno povećane. Uzeti su uzorci krvi i određene su koncentracije inzulina u Morgenovom metodom (Diabetes 12, 115 [1963]), upotrebom inzulinske RIA opreme (Linco Research, St. Charles). Na slici 6 se može vidjeti da su, u usporedbi s kontrolom, razine inzulina bile značajno povišene u divljem tipu miševa kojima je ubrizgana ob mutanta R128Q, dok su injekcije hL imale suprotan učinak. Ti su učinci opaženi s i.p. ubrizganim divljim tipom hL u suprotnosti s podacima koje su dobili Schwartz et al., Clin. Invest. 98, 1101-1106 (1996) sa štakorima, gdje leptin dat intracerebroventrikularno jasno nije mijenjao razine inzulina. After 15 days, the body weight of the animals was approx. 20% higher than their initial body weight (Figure 4), and after treatment it was stopped and returned to their initial weight (Figure 5). Immediately after the 15-day treatment, the animals from the first experiment (Figure 4) were sacrificed and dissected. Abdominal fat deposits were clearly increased. Blood samples were taken and insulin concentrations were determined by Morgen's method (Diabetes 12, 115 [1963]), using insulin RIA equipment (Linco Research, St. Charles). It can be seen in Figure 6 that, compared to control, insulin levels were significantly elevated in wild-type mice injected with ob mutant R128Q, while injections of hL had the opposite effect. These effects were observed with i.p. injected with wild-type hL in contrast to the data obtained by Schwartz et al., Clin. Invest. 98, 1101-1106 (1996) with rats, where leptin given intracerebroventricularly did not clearly alter insulin levels.
Iz gornjih opažanja može se zaključiti da se ob mutante S127D i R128Q ponašaju kao leptin antagonisti s prevladavajućim jakim negativnim učincima in vivo. From the above observations, it can be concluded that ob mutants S127D and R128Q behave as leptin antagonists with predominant strong negative effects in vivo.

Pojačavanje učinka monoklonskih antitijela Enhancement of the effect of monoclonal antibodies
Obrada miševa C57BL/6, koji su homozigotni (ob/ob) za obese gensku mutaciju (Zhang et., gore), s egzogenim leptinom smanjuje uzimanje hrane, povisuje fizičku aktivnost i uzrokuje učinak smanjenja težine (Halaas et al., gore; Pelleymounter et al., gore; Campfield et al., gore). Treatment of C57BL/6 mice, which are homozygous (ob/ob) for the obes gene mutation (Zhang et al., supra), with exogenous leptin reduces food intake, increases physical activity, and produces a weight-reducing effect (Halaas et al., supra; Pelleymounter et al., supra; Campfield et al., supra).
Ko-injekcija rekombinantnog hL s mAb 2A5 ima jasno pojačavajući biološki učinak u ob/ob miševima, što znači da je manje egzogenog leptina potrebno za postizanje istog povoljnog učinka (gubitak težine) ako se daje zajedno s antitijelom (slika 7). Co-injection of recombinant hL with mAb 2A5 has a clear enhancing biological effect in ob/ob mice, meaning that less exogenous leptin is required to achieve the same beneficial effect (weight loss) when co-administered with the antibody (Figure 7).
Do opažene pojave dolazi zbog duljeg vijeka trajanja leptina u serumu vjerojatno zbog stabilizacije ili zaštitnog učinka uzrokovanog antitijelima (slika 8). Monoklonsko aktitijelo (mAb) 2A5 je mišji IgG mAb, koji je uzgojen protiv hL poznatim postupkom Koehlera i Milsteina. The observed phenomenon occurs due to the longer lifetime of leptin in the serum, probably due to the stabilization or protective effect caused by antibodies (Figure 8). Monoclonal antibody (mAb) 2A5 is a mouse IgG mAb, which was raised against hL by the known procedure of Koehler and Milstein.
Učinak smanjenja težine u divljem tipu miševa zahtijeva relativno veliku dozu egzogenog leptina (Halaas et al., Science 269, 543-546 [1995]), jasno ne zbog izostanka post-translacijskih modifikacija rekombinatnog proteina, već kao posljedicu farmakokinetike (Cohen et al., Nature 382, 589 [1996]). Opet, u našim pokusima biološki učinak egzogeno datog hL miševima C57BL/6 (bez mutacije ob gena) jasno je pojačan ubrizgavanjem zajedno s mAb 2A5. Kako se vidi na slici 4, životinje su izgubile pribl. 15% od svoje početne tjelesne težine nakon 15 dana obrade i zadržale su tu razinu sve dok su trajale injekcije s divljim tipom hL. U drugom pokusu životinje su bile obrađivane devet dana i njihova tjelesna težina je bilježena i dalje, čak i nakon prestanka davanja injekcija. Iz slike 5 se može zaključiti da su se životinje vratile na svoju prvobitnu težinu. Ta su opažanja u skladu s mišljenjem da leptin djeluje kao cirkulacijski “stvarni glasnik masti” i s “postavljenom” hipotezom o dugotrajnoj regulaciji ravnoteže energije i održavanju tjelesne težine (Keesey, In Obesity, A. Stunkard, eds. (Philadelphia: W.B. Saunders Co.), 144-166 [1980]; Harris, R.B.S. FASEB J. 4, 3310-3318 [1990]. The weight-reducing effect in wild-type mice requires a relatively high dose of exogenous leptin (Halaas et al., Science 269, 543-546 [1995]), clearly not due to the absence of post-translational modifications of the recombinant protein, but as a consequence of pharmacokinetics (Cohen et al. , Nature 382, 589 [1996]). Again, in our experiments the biological effect of exogenously administered hL to C57BL/6 mice (no ob gene mutation) was clearly enhanced by co-injection with mAb 2A5. As can be seen in Figure 4, the animals lost approx. 15% of their initial body weight after 15 days of treatment and maintained this level for the duration of injections with wild-type hL. In another experiment, the animals were treated for nine days and their body weight was recorded further, even after the injections had stopped. From Figure 5 it can be concluded that the animals returned to their original weight. These observations are consistent with the view that leptin acts as a circulatory “real fat messenger” and with the “posited” hypothesis of long-term regulation of energy balance and weight maintenance (Keesey, In Obesity, A. Stunkard, eds. (Philadelphia: W.B. Saunders Co. ), 144-166 [1980]; Harris, R. B. S. FASEB J. 4, 3310-3318 [1990].
