Examination of the ability of tumor necrosis factor-␣ (TNF) to activate both the p44/42 and p38 MAP kinase cascades in fully differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes indicated a rapid MEK1/2-dependent activation of p44/42 MAP kinase. Use of the MEK1/2 inhibitor PD98059 indicated that this pathway at least i
The seminal observation that secretion of the adipocyte-derived hormone leptin was induced by inflammatory challenge has been expanded upon to demonstrate the importance of the pro-inflammatory cytokines, especially tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-␣, in inflammatory hyperleptinemia. Initially, it was th
