متن کاملInflammatory breast cancer: yet another risk of the obesity epidemic?
p.P81S mutation presents with a milder degree of HIF 1/2 stabilization and activation of HIF target genes, providing a degree of pseudohypoxia that can still be modulated by actual hypoxia in the surrounding environment. The report also demonstrates that the VHL p.P81S and p.R167Q mutations result in the loss of interaction with Elongin C. A recent publication highlighted the mutation of this p...
متن کاملInflammatory Cytokines and type 2 diabetes
Inflammatory cytokines increase in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and metabolic syndrome. This review focuses on inflammatory cytokines such as C-reactive protein (CRP), tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α), and adiponectin, a cytokine produced by adipose tissue and associated with insulin sensitivity. Despite the major role of cytokines in the development of T2D, in the case of adiponectin still...
متن کاملThe relationship of inflammatory cytokines with asthma and obesity.
OBJECTIVES Obesity is considered a risk factor for asthma. However, the mechanism that connects the two is not well understood. In this study we investigated the relationship between inflammatory cytokines and acute phase reactants in obesity, and asthma. METHOD Asthmatic and control subjects were divided into 2 sub-groups: obese and non-obese. Anthropomorphic parameters, erythrocyte sediment...
متن کاملFunctions of Obesity-related Hormones in Breast Cancer: A Review
ABSTRACT Obesity is a health problem defined as abnormal or excessive fat accumulation in adipose tissue. Adipokines such as adiponectin, visfatin and resistin are bioactive polypeptides with pro- and anti-inflammatory properties that are secreted by the adipose tissue that are involved in the pathogenesis and prognosis of diseases ...
