Lipid Chaperones and Metabolic Inflammation
Over the past decade, a large body of evidence has emerged demonstrating an integration of metabolic and immune response pathways. It is now clear that obesity and associated disorders such as insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes are associated with a metabolically driven, low-grade, chronic inflammatory state, referred to as "metaflammation." Several inflammatory cytokines as well as lipids ...
متن کاملLipid Profile and Leptin Levels in Patients with Metabolic Syndrome
Abstract Background and Objective: Metabolic syndrome called a cluster of several metabolic disorders is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular diseases. Genetic differences in leptin receptor gene are related with the concentration and activity of leptin in that these discrepancies can influence lipid levels. We aimed to determine the association between the leptin receptor gene p...
متن کاملInflammation and Metabolic Syndrome
S angye Gyamtso, a seventeenth century Tibetan scholar, noted that, “overeating ... causes illness and shortens lifespan”. Thus, without even an understanding of a biochemical pathway, early scholars recognized excess weight as harmful to health. Indeed, obesity predisposes individuals to a host of health complications, including insulin resistance, hypertension, and dyslipidemia, which collect...
متن کاملInflammation and Metabolic Syndrome
The relationship among inflammatory markers: C-reactive protein (CRP), fibrinogen, white blood cells count and metabolic syndrome has been observed in experimental, clinical and epidemiological studies. High levels of inflammatory markers are related to increased body mass index (BMI), increased serum lipoproteins, high blood glucose, hyperinsulinemia and insulin resistance. Probably the chroni...
متن کاملMetabolic Syndrome, Inflammation and Atherosclerosis
The inflammatory component of atherogenesis has been increasingly recognized over the last decade. Inflammation participates in all stages of atherosclerosis, not only during initiation and during evolution of lesions, but also with precipitation of acute thrombotic complications. The metabolic syndrome is associated with increased risk for development of both cardiovascular disease and type-2 ...
