Abstract | PURPOSE: Leptin has been implicated in bone metabolism, but the association with parathyroid gland function has not been fully clarified. This review aimed to summarize evidence of the association between leptin and hyperparathyroidism, both primary and secondary, elucidating the potential pathophysiologic and therapeutic consequences between leptin and parathyroid hormone, hopefully prompting the design of new studies. |
