association between omentin, visfatin and insulin-like growth factor-1 in women with metabolic syndrome
conclusions our findings indicated a lower level of both omentin-1 and igf-1 in women with mets; this might play a role in the pathogenesis of mets. furthermore, the main finding of the current investigation was the association between omentin, visfatin and igf-1; however determining the molecular mechanism of the observed relationships needs further studies. results significantly lower levels ...
متن کاملInsulin-Like Growth Factor-1 Deficiency and Cirrhosis Establishment
Cirrhosis represents the final stage of chronic liver damage, which can be due to different factors such as alcohol, metabolic syndrome with liver steatosis, autoimmune diseases, drugs, toxins, and viral infection, among others. Nowadays, cirrhosis is an important health problem and it is an increasing cause of morbidity and mortality, being the 14th most common cause of death worldwide. The ph...
متن کاملInsulin-like growth factor -I deficiency.
The insulin-like growth factor (IGF) system composed of two ligands, their receptors and regulatory proteins (acid-labile subunit and IGF-binding proteins) plays a central role in the regulation of growth and development in mammals. In addition to its key role in the stimulation of cellular proliferation and growth, IGF-I has important effects on carbohydrate, protein and bone metabolism. The m...
متن کاملThe Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 (G>A) and 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase (C677T) Gene Variants and the Serum Levels of Insulin-like Growth Factor-1, Insulin, and Homeostasis Model Assessment in Patients with Acne Vulgaris
Background & Objective: To find an association between gene variants of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) with the risk of acne vulgaris (AV). Methods: In a case-control study, we investigated 150 AV patients and 148 healthy individuals (aged 18-25 years) for the IGF-1 G>A and MTHFR C677T polymorphis...
متن کاملThe relationship between insulin-like growth factor-1 and metabolic syndrome, independent of adiponectin.
BACKGROUND Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) is associated with obesity and aging, and was recently linked to metabolic syndrome (MetS) and insulin resistance. However, little is known about the relationship between IGF-1 and adiponectin (adiponectin), another marker of MetS. METHODS We measured the plasma IGF-1 and adiponectin levels of 3099 subjects (1869 males, 55.9±10.8 y). We applied ...
