متن کاملSerum retinol-binding protein 4 levels are elevated in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease
OBJECTIVE Retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) is a recently identified adipokine that is elevated in the serum in several insulin-resistant states. We investigated the relationship between non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and serum RBP4 in nondiabetic adults. METHODS One hundred and fifty-nine nondiabetic, non-alcoholic subjects (95 males and 64 females) participated in this study. Divi...
متن کاملElevated Serum Triglyceride and Retinol-Binding Protein 4 Levels Associated with Fructose-Sweetened Beverages in Adolescents
BACKGROUND The metabolic effect of fructose in sugar-sweetened beverages (SSB) has been linked to de novo lipogenesis and uric acid (UA) production. OBJECTIVES This study investigated the biological effects of SSB consumption on serum lipid profiles and retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) among Taiwanese adolescents. METHODS We evaluated the anthropometric parameters and biochemical outcomes o...
متن کاملRetinol-binding protein-4 in women with untreated essential hypertension.
BACKGROUND Retinol-binding protein-4 (RBP4) is a novel adipokine able to modulate the action of insulin in several tissues. A variable degree of insulin resistance characterizes the vast majority of hypertensive (HYP) patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between RBP4 and essential hypertension, exploring potential links between RBP4 and other adipokines with some pro...
متن کاملRetinol-Binding Protein 4 in Twins
OBJECTIVE Retinol-binding protein (RBP) 4 is an adipokine of which plasma levels are elevated in obesity and type 2 diabetes. The aims of the study were to identify determinants of plasma RBP4 and RBP4 mRNA expression in subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) and skeletal muscle and to investigate the association between RBP4 and in vivo measures of glucose metabolism. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS ...
