Abstract
Lipodystrophy is a rare disease characterized by various metabolic complications resulting from the complete or partial loss of adipose tissues and abnormal fat accumulation. Acquired lipodystrophy may occur due to certain drugs, autoimmunity or for unknown reasons. Recently, cases of acquired lipodystrophy after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) have been reported. Leptin administration, used recently to treat generalized lipodystrophy, effectively controlled metabolic complications; however, few reports demonstrated the effectiveness of leptin for acquired partial lipodystrophy. In this report, we present the case of a 17-year-old woman who developed insulin resistance, hypertriglyceridemia, and fatty liver after HSCT. Due to her thin gluteal fat and low blood adiponectin levels, her metabolic abnormalities were attributed to partial lipodystrophy. While both leptin and pemafibrate administration partially attenuated metabolic abnormalities, its effects were relatively limited, probably because the serum leptin levels were maintained, which is not likely in generalized lipodystrophy. Nevertheless, after she developed adjustment disorder and experienced weight loss, along with decreased food intake, her metabolic markers significantly improved. This case suggests the modest effect of leptin and permafibrate in partial lipodystrophy after HSCT, highlighting the importance of diet therapy in metreleptin treatment for acquired partial lipodystrophy.

Abstract
Lipodystrophy syndromes are rare diseases with defects in the development or maintenance of adipose tissue, frequently leading to severe metabolic complications. They may be genetic or acquired, with variable clinical forms, and are largely underdiagnosed. The European Consortium of Lipodystrophies, ECLip, is a fully functional non-profit network of European centers of excellence working in the field of lipodystrophies. It provides a favorable environment to promote large Europe-wide and international collaborations to increase the basic scientific understanding and clinical management of these diseases. It works with patient advocacy groups to increase public awareness. The network also promotes a European Patient Registry of lipodystrophies, as a collaborative research platform for consortium members. The annual congress organized gives an update of the findings of network research groups, highlighting clinical and fundamental aspects. The talks presented during the meeting in Cambridge, UK, in 2022 are summarized in these minutes.

Abstract
Lipodystrophy syndromes are rare, heterogeneous disorders characterized by the complete or partial deficiency of adipose tissue and are classified according to the extent of fat loss in generalized or partial subtypes, or based on the pathogenic mechanisms in genetic or acquired. While in most cases of congenital forms of lipodystrophy a genetic alteration can be identified, the pathogenic mechanisms responsible for the acquired diseases are not fully clarified. Based on the evidence of a positive association between most acquired lipodystrophies and autoimmune disorders including immune mediated alterations in the adipose tissue of patients affected by acquired lipodystrophy, a reaction against white adipose tissue antigens is postulated. Recent acquisitions have shed new light on the possible pathogenic mechanisms and identified novel forms of acquired lipodystrophy which are possibly immune-mediated. The aim of this review is to give an update on acquired lipodystrophies describing pathogenic mechanisms involved and the relationships between acquired lipodystrophies and other autoimmune disorders. Larger studies based on international disease registries are needed to collect accurate information on the prevalence, risk factors, genetic predisposition, natural history, disease markers and treatment efficacy of these ultrarare disorders.

Metreleptin worked in a diabetic woman with a history of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) during infancy: further support for the concept of 'HSCT-associated lipodystrophy'. Endocr J 2021; 68:399-407.

Abstract
A 17-year-old woman with a history of childhood leukemia and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), preceded by total body irradiation, developed diabetes, dyslipidemia, fatty liver, and marked insulin resistance. Based on Dunnigan phenotype, HSCT-associated lipodystrophy was suspected. Because of rapid deterioration of diabetes control, metreleptin was introduced at 23 years of age upon receipt of her caregiver's documented consent. This trial was initially planned as a prospective 18 month-long study, with regular assessments of the patient's physical activity, food intake, and body composition analysis. However, because an abrupt and transient attenuation of the metreleptin effect occurred 16 months after the treatment initiation, the entire course of 28 months is reported here. Over the period, her HbA1c decreased from 10.9% to 6.7% despite no significant increase of physical activity and with a stable food intake. Decreased levels of triglyceride and non-HDL cholesterol were found. Her liver function improved, indicating the amelioration of fatty liver. In addition, a 25% reduction in the subcutaneous fat area at umbilical level was found, accompanied by a decrease in fat percentage of both total-body and trunk. The formation of neutralizing antibodies to metreleptin may be responsible for the transient loss of efficacy, considering a sudden elevation in her serum leptin level. In conclusion, metreleptin is useful for the management of HSCT-associated lipodystrophy, supporting the concept that adipose tissue dysfunction is responsible for diverse post-HSCT metabolic aberrations.
