Adipokines and Cysteinyl Leukotrienes in the Pathogenesis of Asthma

<div>Increase in leptin levels in obese asthmatics. Serum leptin levels log mean transformed (ng/mL) in subjects with asthma obesity (AO), nonasthma nonobesity (NANO), asthma nonobesity (ANO), and nonasthma obesity (NAO). AO had significantly higher leptin levels (ANOVA <svg height="11.6608pt" id="M33" style="vertical-align:-3.32502pt" version="1.1" viewbox="-0.0498162 -8.33578 45.37 11.6608" width="45.37pt"
