Here is a breakdown of the source code representation of a Java class. A class can be broken down into two things: 1  The first piece is a class-header which consists of the keyword  class  and the name you give to the class. 2  Names in programming languages are also known as identifiers. 3  The second piece is the body.
The long isoform consists of 1162 amino acids and is the only Leptin receptor isoform with clearly demonstrated signaling capability [1]. Leptin signaling occurs typically through the JAK/STAT pathway. Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) activation leads to tyrosine phosphorylation of Leptin receptor. Phosphorylated Tyr1138 of Leptin receptor serves as a binding site for STAT proteins.
Leptin is a small, hormone-like protein that is also present in colostrum. It can suppress appetite and is involved in regulating the metabolism of fats. Insulin, which is also found in colostrum, and leptin work together. When insulin is present, mature fat cells (adipocytes) in the body release leptin. It is also believed that the size of the fat cells is a major factor in determining how much leptin will be released, small fat cells release more than large fat cells.
