In conclusion, IL-6, leptin, adiponectin, and ghrelin are not associated with advanced stages of cancer or cancer-induced cachexia in older subjects with cancer, but they are significantly correlated with anthropometric factors and body composition.

There was a significant correlation with cachexia for reduced serum levels of mediators within the glucose utilization [insulin -like growth factor (IGF)-binding protein 6, P = 0·04; IGF-1, P = 0·02], inflammation (lymphotoxin-like inducible protein that competes with glycoprotein D for herpesvirus entry on T cells; LIGHT, P = 0·005), and energy intake/expenditure (leptin, P = 0·004).

Although circulating levels of leptin and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) were found to be decreased in the same cohort of treatment-naïve cachectic patients, these factors were closely associated with body mass index, limiting their utility as cancer cachexia biomarkers.

The recent development of superactive leptin muteins exhibiting antagonistic properties, and other leptin-action-blocking peptides, proteins, monoclonal antibodies, and nanobodies, opens new perspectives for their use in research, and eventually, therapy for cachexia, autoimmune disease, cancer, and other pathologies.

We had proposed a central mechanism involving leptin and melanocortin signaling in the pathogenesis of uremic cachexia since agouti-related peptide (AgRP), a melanocortin-4 receptor antagonist, reduced uremic cachexia.

The results of this study suggest that elevated circulating levels of cytokines such as leptin may be an important cause of uremia-associated cachexia via signaling through the central melanocortin system.

Fat mass, leptin, and pseudouridine were significantly different (P < 0.001) between noncachectic patients (NCPs) and cachectic patients (CPs: n = 35); the systemic inflammatory cytokine profile was not.

The data from the present study indicate that, in gynaecological and breast cancers, leptin is related to hormonal status but not to cachexia.

Cachexia was associated with atrophy of epidermal and adnexal structures of skin; a similar phenotype is reported in triglyceride-deficient mice and in ob/ob mice injected with leptin.
