Renal function is independently associated with circulating betatrophin
OBJECTIVE Betatrophin has been identified as a marker linking liver with beta cell function and lipid metabolism in murine models. Until now, the regulation of circulating betatrophin in humans is not entirely clear. We here analyzed the relation of betatrophin levels to phenotypes of the metabolic syndrome and speculated that renal function might influence circulating betatrophin levels and ex...
متن کاملHigher serum betatrophin level in type 2 diabetes subjects is associated with urinary albumin excretion and renal function
BACKGROUND Betatrophin is a newly identified liver-derived hormone that is associated with glucose homeostasis and lipid metabolism. Although dysregulated lipid metabolism results in diabetic nephropathy (DN) development in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), it is not understood whether betatrophin is associated with urinary albumin excretion and renal function. METHODS Based on a...
متن کاملRenal Function but Not Asymmetric Dimethylarginine Is Independently Associated with Retinopathy in Type 2 Diabetes
Background. Asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) is associated with macrovascular disease and possibly with microangiopathy in type 2 diabetes (T2DM). We tested the hypothesis that ADMA is related to diabetic retinopathy (DR) independently of macrovascular disease. Methods. This cross-sectional study included 127 T2DM patients selected to achieve equal distributions of patients with and without m...
متن کاملAortic Stiffness Is Independently Associated With Rate of Renal Function Decline in Chronic Kidney Disease
Aortic stiffness and chronic kidney disease are closely linked by shared risk factors and associated increased cardiovascular mortality. At lower levels of renal function, aortic stiffness is independently associated with glomerular filtration rate. However, the longitudinal impact of aortic stiffness on renal function has not been reported previously. A cohort of 133 patients with chronic kidn...
