Increased plasma caveolin-1 levels are associated with progression of prostate cancer among Japanese men.

AIM Up-regulation of caveolin-1 (CAV1) is associated with aggressive prostate cancer. Among Caucasian and African-American patients, plasma CAV1 levels are elevated in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), but not in those with hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (non-CRPC), which implies that CAV1 could be a therapeutic target for CRPC. Here, we evaluated associations betwee...

Comparison of the Agouti Dependent Protein and Neuropeptide Y Response to the High Intensity Interval Training in Obese and Underweight Men

Objective: Appetite regulation has a great impact on energy homeostasis. This study aimed to compare the response agouti-related protein (AGRP) and neuropeptide Y (NPY) to a single high intensity interval training (HIIT) in obese and underweight men. Materials and Methods: This semi-experimental research conducted on 40 obese and underweight men who were divided into four groups including expe...

serum adiponectin levels are inversely correlated with insulin resistance in obese men with type 2 diabetes

Circulating Levels of Agouti-Related Peptide in Endometrial Cancer Survivors

Background Recently, it has been reported that central administration of agouti-related peptide (AgRP) might have protective effect against cachexia development in tumor-bearing mice. In this study, we determined whether the disease-free endometrial cancer survivors present with different plasma AgRP levels than controls and whether there was an association with the duration of the disease-free...
