Obesity has emerged as a major risk factor for insulin resistance leading to the development of type 2 diabetes (T2D). The condition is characterized by high circulating levels of the adipose-derived hormone leptin and a state of chronic low-grade inflammation. Pro-inflammatory signaling in the hypothalamus is associated with a decrease of central leptin- and insulin action leading to impaired systemic glucose tolerance. Intriguingly, leptin not only regulates body weight and glucose homeostasis but also acts as a pro-infla
