Endurance training partially reverses dietary-induced leptin resistance in rodent skeletal muscle
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Leptin acutely stimulates skeletal muscle fatty acid (FA) metabolism in lean rodents and humans. This stimulatory effect is eliminated following the feeding of high-fat diets in rodents as well as in obese humans. The mechanism(s) responsible for the development of skeletal muscle leptin resistance is unknown; however, a role for increased suppressor of cytokine signaling-3 (SOCS3) inhibition of the leptin receptor has been demonstrated in other rodent tissues. Furthermore, whether exercise intervention is an effective strategy to prevent or attenuate the development of skeletal muscle leptin resistance has not been investigated. Toward this end, 48 Sprague-Dawley rats (175-190 g; approximately 2-3 mo of age) were fed control or high-fat (60% kcal) diets for 4 wk and either remained sedentary or were treadmill trained. In control diet-fed animals that remained sedentary (CS) or were endurance trained (CT), leptin stimulated FA oxidation (CS +32 +/- 15%, CT +30 +/- 17%; P < 0.05), suppressed triacylglycerol (TAG) esterification (CS -17 +/- 7%, CT -24 +/- 8%; P < 0.05), and reduced the esterification-to-oxidation ratio (CS -19 +/- 13%, CT -29 +/- 10%; P < 0.001) in soleus muscle. High-fat feeding induced leptin resistance in the soleus of sedentary rats (FS), whereas endurance exercise training (FT) restored the ability of leptin to suppress TAG esterification (-19 +/- 9%, P = 0.038). Training did not completely restore the ability of leptin to stimulate FA oxidation. High-fat diets stimulated SOCS3 mRNA expression irrespective of training status (FS +451 +/- 120%, P = 0.024; FT +381 +/- 141%, P = 0.023). Thus the development of skeletal muscle leptin resistance appears to involve an increase in SOCS3 mRNA expression. Endurance training was generally effective in preventing the development of leptin resistance, although this did not appear to require a decrease in SOCS3 expression. Future studies should examine changes in the actual protein content of SOCS3 in muscle and establish whether aerobic exercise is also effective in treating leptin resistance in humans.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
