Introduction: Homozygous leptin (LEP) and leptin receptor (LEPR) mutations lead to childhood-onset obesity due to deficient leptin signaling. The specific aims of this work are to explore genotype/phenotype correlations in a national multicenter cohort of 18 subjects with leptin (LEP) and leptin receptor (LEPR) deficiency, report on the long-term clinical follow-up of these rare cases, and systematically review all patients with pathogenic <e...
