AKT1 and obesity disorder: Several pathways related to the development of leptin resistance have been studied in animal models such as the fat mass and obesity-related gene, oestradiol (E2) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ, phosphodiesterase-3B (PDE3B)-cAMP- and Akt-pathways of leptin signalling in the hypothalamus [17,18].
