Relationship between beta-globin gene carrier state and insulin resistance
OBJECTIVE To assess the relationship between being beta globin gene carrier and developing insulin resistance. METHODS This study was conducted on 164 subjects including 82 healthy ones and 82 patients with beta thalassemia minor (microcytosis (MCV <80 fl) and hypochromia (MCH <25 pg) and HbA2 ≥ 3.5% using HPLC). Fasting blood glucose (FBS) values of 100-125 mg/dl were considered as impaired ...

متن کاملRelationship between adiponectin, obesity and insulin resistance.
OBJECTIVES the conditions of obesity and overweight pose a major risk for a number of comorbidities, including clinical syndromes resulting from atherosclerotic disease. Recent studies strongly indicate that adipose tissue is an active endocrine organ that secretes bioactive factors such as adipokines. Adiponectin appears to have a regulatory role in the mechanism of insulin resistance and in t...
متن کاملCo-Inheritance of Beta & Delta-Globin Gene (HbYialousa) Mutations in an Iranian β-Thalassemia Carrier
Introduction: Beta-thalassemia is characterized by absence or reduced synthesis of the β-globin. Carriers of β-thalassemia, typically have microcytic hypochromic anemia and elevated hemoglobin HbA2 and normal HbF level. On the other hand carriers of severe alpha-thalassemia also have similar CBC parameters to that of β-thalassemia with normal HbA2 level. Co-presence of mutations in the β-globin...
