UCP2, SHBG, Leptin, and T3 Levels Are Associated with Resting Energy Expenditure in Obese Women.

CONCLUSION: Changes of the UCP2, leptin, and thyroid hormone (T3) levels may be related to SHBG levels. Thus, lower leptin and T3 levels may decrease SHBG in obese women. Therefor, lower SHBG, leptin, T3 and UCP2 levels may decrease the REE level in obese women. PMID: 31340742 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
