Plasma retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) levels and risk of coronary heart disease: a prospective analysis among women in the nurses' health study.
BACKGROUND Retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) may play an important role in the origin of insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome. Few prospective data are available on the relationship between RBP4 and coronary heart disease (CHD). Furthermore, previous studies did not distinguish among full-length and truncated forms of RBP4 that might have various biological activities. METHODS AND RESULTS...
متن کاملassociation of plasma retinol binding protein-4 (rbp4) and sonographic grading of fatty liver in obese iranian children
results rbp4 levels in obese children (19 482.9 ± 3 302.2 pg/ml) were higher than those found in the lean control group (14 295.68 ± 2 381.3 pg/ml) (p < 0.05). in the obese patients, rbp4 levels showed a significant correlation with the grade of fatty liver and bmi (p < 0.05). conclusions it was found that the level of rbp4 had a strong correlation with the severity of fatty liver. therefore, r...

متن کاملThe relationship between plasma angiopoietin-like protein 4 levels, angiopoietin-like protein 4 genotype, and coronary heart disease risk.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the relationship between angiopoietin-like protein 4 (Angptl4) levels, coronary heart disease (CHD) biomarkers, and ANGPTL4 variants. METHODS AND RESULTS Plasma Angptl4 was quantified in 666 subjects of the Northwick Park Heart Study II using a validated ELISA. Seven ANGPTL4 single-nucleotide polymorphisms were genotyped, and CHD biomarkers were assessed in the whole ...
متن کاملAssociation of Plasma Retinol Binding Protein-4 (RBP4) and Sonographic Grading of Fatty Liver in Obese Iranian Children
BACKGROUND The prevalence of obesity and its related comorbidities, such as fatty liver, in children is increasing worldwide mostly due to changes in diet and life-style. Many serological markers have been suggested for screening of fatty liver but investigations for finding more reliable factors are still in progress. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to investigate the correlation between the lev...
