Evolutionary conservation of leptin effects on wound healing in vertebrates: Implications for veterinary medicine

In mammals, the cytokine hormone leptin promotes wound healing by increasing inflammation, cellular recruitment, angiogenic regrowth, and re-epithelialization; however, it is not known whether leptin has conserved actions on wound healing in other vertebrates. Here, we tested the hypothesis that lep...
