P48 - Leptin, IL4, INFγ in obese asthmatic children
Patients and method 50 atopic asthmatic children; (25 obese and 25 non obese), and 20 controls were involved in the study. Asthmatic children were with different clinical disease stages according to GINA. BMI was determined and peripheral blood samples were taken to determine IFNg, IL-4, and Leptin concentrations. Disease severity was assessed by asthma symptom score and its relation to other p...
متن کاملExercise induced bronchospasm in asthmatic and non-asthmatic obese children.
AIM to investigate the spirometric response to the exercise challenge in asthmatic and non-asthmatic obese children. PATIENTS, MATERIALS AND METHODS it was a prospective, longitudinal, open label clinical trial with four groups of children from 8 to 16 years. The group 1 had 15 asthmatic non-obese children. The group 2 had 15 asthmatic obese children. The group 3 had 15 non-asthmatic obese ch...
متن کاملThe Role of Leptin in Obese Children
The obesity gene (ob) in mice encodes a protein produced by adipose tissue, leptin, which regulates body weight (3). Under experimental conditions, leptin affects the central nervous system and tends to reduce appetite and increase energy expenditure. Numerous studies have shown an increased expression of the ob gene (mRNA-leptin) in adipocytes or a marked increase in serum leptin concentration...
متن کاملSerum Leptin and Adiponectin Levels in Obese and Nonobese Asthmatic School Children in relation to Asthma Control
There is growing evidence of a positive correlation between asthma and obesity in children and adults. Leptin and adiponectin regulate several metabolic and inflammatory functions. This study aims to evaluate serum leptin and adiponectin concentrations in asthmatic school children to investigate their association with obesity and the degree of asthma control. Obese asthmatic (OA) and nonobese a...
متن کاملSerum leptin and bone metabolism parameters in obese children
Aim: Complex correlations exist between leptin, obesity and bone formation. Leptin is thought to affect growth and bone formation as well as osteoblastic and osteoclastic activities. Additionally, leptin increases bone mineral content. The aim of this study was to evaluate the correlation between serum leptin levels and osteoblastic and osteoclastic parameters and Bone Mineral Density (BMD) in ...
