Family variables and their relation to adolescent suicidal ideation among a multi-racial sample of urban high school students (1997)

Friedman, Jeffrey M

In a cross-sectional study, a stratified randomly selected sample of 120 sixteen year old adolescents were assessed for suicidal ideation. African-American, Hispanic, and White groups of forty male...

Friedman, Jeffrey M.

Thesis (Ph. D.)--Rockefeller University.

Anatomic localization of alternatively spliced leptin receptors (Ob-R) in mouse brain and other tissues

Fei, Hong, Okano, Hirotaka J., Li, Cai, Lee, Gwo-Hwa, Zhao, Connie, Darnell, Robert, ...

Leptin’s effects are mediated by interactions with a receptor that is alternatively spliced, resulting in at least five different murine forms: Ob-Ra, Ob-Rb, Ob-Rc, Ob-Rd, and Ob-Re. A mutation in...

Abnormal regulation of the leptin gene in the pathogenesis of obesity

Ioffe, Ella, Moon, Byoung, Connolly, Eileen, Friedman, Jeffrey M.

A subset of obese humans has relatively low plasma levels of leptin. This finding has suggested that in some cases abnormal regulation of the leptin gene in adipose tissue is etiologic in the...

Leptin receptor activation of SH2 domain containing protein tyrosine phosphatase 2 modulates Ob receptor signal transduction

Li, Cai, Friedman, Jeffrey M.

Leptin exerts its weight-reducing effects by binding to its receptor and activating signal transduction in hypothalamic neurons and other cell types. To identify the components of the leptin signal...

Physiological response to long-term peripheral and central leptin infusion in lean and obese mice

Halaas, Jeffrey L., Boozer, Carol, Blair-West, John, Fidahusein, Naseem, Denton, Derek A., Friedman, Jeffrey M.

Recent data have identified leptin as an afferent signal in a negative-feedback loop regulating the mass of the adipose tissue. High leptin levels are observed in obese humans and rodents, suggesting...

Lipoprotein lipase controls fatty acid entry into adipose tissue, but fat mass is preserved by endogenous synthesis in mice deficient in adipose tissue lipoprotein lipase

Weinstock, Peter H., Levak-Frank, Sanja, Hudgins, Lisa C., Radner, Herbert, Friedman, Jeffrey M., Zechner, Rudolf, ...

Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) is the rate-limiting enzyme for the import of triglyceride-derived fatty acids by muscle, for utilization, and adipose tissue (AT), for storage. Relative ratios of LPL...

Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor γ Target Gene Encoding a Novel Angiopoietin-Related Protein Associated with Adipose Differentiation

Yoon, J. Cliff, Chickering, Troy W., Rosen, Evan D., Dussault, Barry, Qin, Yubin, Soukas, Alexander, ...

The nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ regulates adipose differentiation and systemic insulin signaling via ligand-dependent transcriptional activation of target genes....

Loss of stearoyl–CoA desaturase-1 function protects mice against adiposity

Ntambi, James M., Miyazaki, Makoto, Stoehr, Jonathan P., Lan, Hong, Kendziorski, Christina M., Yandell, Brian S., ...

Stearoyl–CoA desaturase (SCD) is a central lipogenic enzyme catalyzing the synthesis of monounsaturated fatty acids, mainly oleate (C18:1) and palmitoleate (C16:1), which are components of membrane...

Targeted disruption of GPR7, the endogenous receptor for neuropeptides B and W, leads to metabolic defects and adult-onset obesity

Ishii, Makoto, Fei, Hong, Friedman, Jeffrey M.

Gold-thioglucose (GTG) induces lesions in the ventromedial nucleus of the hypothalamus, resulting in hyperphagia and obesity. To identify genes involved in the hypothalamic regulation of energy...

Selective deletion of leptin receptor in neurons leads to obesity

Cohen, Paul, Zhao, Connie, Cai, Xiaoli, Montez, Jason M., Rohani, S. Christy, Feinstein, Paul, ...

Animals with mutations in the leptin receptor (ObR) exhibit an obese phenotype that is indistinguishable from that of leptin deficient ob/ob mice. ObR is expressed in many tissues, including brain,...

Abnormal osmotic regulation in trpv4-/- mice

Liedtke, Wolfgang, Friedman, Jeffrey M.

Osmotic homeostasis is one of the most aggressively defended physiological parameters in vertebrates. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying osmotic regulation are poorly understood. The...

Mammalian TRPV4 (VR-OAC) directs behavioral responses to osmotic and mechanical stimuli in Caenorhabditis elegans

Liedtke, Wolfgang, Tobin, David M., Bargmann, Cornelia I., Friedman, Jeffrey M.

All animals detect osmotic and mechanical stimuli, but the molecular basis for these responses is incompletely understood. The vertebrate transient receptor potential channel vanilloid subfamily 4...

Microsatellite Marker Content Mapping of 12 Candidate Genes for Obesity: Assembly of Seven Obesity Screening Panels for Automated Genotyping

Winick, Jeffrey D., Friedman, Jeffrey M.

Twin studies, adoption studies, and studies of familial aggregation indicate that obesity has a genetic component. Whereas, the genetic factors predisposing to obesity have been elucidated for...

Leptin-specific patterns of gene expression in white adipose tissue

Soukas, Alexander, Cohen, Paul, Socci, Nicholas D., Friedman, Jeffrey M.

Leptin is a hormone that regulates body weight by decreasing food intake and increasing energy expenditure. ob/ob mice carry leptin mutations and are obese and hyperphagic. Leptin administration to...

Site and mechanism of leptin action in a rodent form of congenital lipodystrophy

Asilmaz, Esra, Cohen, Paul, Miyazaki, Makoto, Dobrzyn, Pawel, Ueki, Kohjiro, Fayzikhodjaeva, Gulnorakhon, ...

Lipodystrophy is characterized by the complete or partial absence of adipose tissue, insulin resistance, hepatic steatosis, and leptin deficiency. Here, we show that low-dose central leptin corrects...

Stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1 deficiency increases fatty acid oxidation by activating AMP-activated protein kinase in liver

Dobrzyn, Pawel, Dobrzyn, Agnieszka, Miyazaki, Makoto, Cohen, Paul, Asilmaz, Esra, Hardie, D. Grahame, ...

Stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD) catalyzes the rate-limiting step in the biosynthesis of monounsaturated fatty acids. Mice with a targeted disruption of the SCD1 isoform have reduced body adiposity,...

Acute leptin deficiency, leptin resistance, and the physiologic response to leptin withdrawal

Montez, Jason M., Soukas, Alex, Asilmaz, Esra, Fayzikhodjaeva, Gulnorakhon, Fantuzzi, Giamila, Friedman, Jeffrey M.

Food restriction and weight loss result in reduced plasma leptin, which is associated with a pleiotropic biologic response. However, because weight loss itself is also associated with changes in...
