Serum and Tissue Expression Levels of Leptin and Leptin Receptor Are Putative Markers of Specific Feline Mammary Carcinoma Subtypes
Obesity is an established risk factor for breast cancer in post-menopausal women, being associated with elevated serum levels of leptin. Although overweight is a common condition in cat, the role of leptin and its receptor in feline mammary carcinoma remains unsettled. In this study, serum leptin an...
