Leptin induces angiopoietin-2 expression in adipose tissues ... We demonstrate that leptin induces the expression of Ang-2 in adipose tissue without a concomitant increase in VEGF ... We propose that induction of Ang-2 by leptin in adipose cells is one of the events leading to adipose tissue regression

In conclusion, although Ang II stimulates both leptin and PG secretion by adipocytes, regulation of leptin secretion by Ang II in adipocytes is not mediated by a PG-dependent mechanism

Here we tested whether angiotensin (Ang) II is involved in the control of leptin release from human adipocytes
Shyu et al., Clin Sci (Lond) 2012
:
In conclusion, Ang II induces leptin expression in human VSMCs, and atorvastatin could inhibit the leptin expression induced by Ang II
