Association of Serum Retinol Binding Protein 4 with Atherogenic Dyslipidemia in Morbid Obese Patients
Retinol binding protein 4 (RBP4) is an adipokine that may contribute to the development of insulin resistance. However, how this adipokine is affected and its possible involvement in lipid metabolism in obese patients with varying degrees of insulin resistance is yet to be determined. A total of 299 middle-aged morbid obese patients (BMI>40 kg/m(2)) were divided in euglycemic, metabolic syndrom...
متن کاملassociation of plasma retinol binding protein-4 (rbp4) and sonographic grading of fatty liver in obese iranian children
results rbp4 levels in obese children (19 482.9 ± 3 302.2 pg/ml) were higher than those found in the lean control group (14 295.68 ± 2 381.3 pg/ml) (p < 0.05). in the obese patients, rbp4 levels showed a significant correlation with the grade of fatty liver and bmi (p < 0.05). conclusions it was found that the level of rbp4 had a strong correlation with the severity of fatty liver. therefore, r...
متن کاملassociation of retinol?binding protein 4 with metabolic syndrome in first?degree relatives of type 2 diabetic patients
background: retinol?binding protein 4 (rbp4) is known to regulate lipid and glucose metabolism and insulin resistance. the influences of rbp4 on metabolic syndrome (ms) are still unclear. the purpose of this study is to evaluate the association between serum levels of rbp4 and ms components in first?degree relations of type 2 diabetic patients. materials and methods: this cross?sectional study ...
متن کاملRetinol Binding Protein 4 Concentrations Relate to Enhanced Atherosclerosis in Obese Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis
BACKGROUND Retinol binding protein 4 (RBP) enhances metabolic risk and atherogenesis. Whether RBP4 contributes to cardiovascular risk in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is unknown. METHODS We assessed RBP4 concentrations and those of endothelial activation molecules including E-selectin, vascular cell adhesion molecule-1, intercellular adhesion molecule-1 and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 by E...
متن کاملCOMPARISON OF THE EFFECTS OF EIGHT WEEKS OF RESISTANCE TRAINING WITH AND WITHOUT SAFFRON EXTRACT, BARBERRY ON SERUM LEVEL 4 OF RETINOL BINDING PROTEIN, AND INSULIN RESISTANCE IN OBESE MICE WITH HIGH-FAT DIET
Background: The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of eight weeks of resistance training with and without the use of aqueous extracts of barberry and saffron on serum levels of RBP4, glucose, insulin and insulin resistance in obese mice. Methods: In this study, 80 mice with a mean weight of 41± 2 g were exposed to high fat diet for 10 weeks. Then, they were randomly assigned to 8 ...
