چکیده

Resistin is a signal peptide produced by adipose tissue. Mice models have confirmed that resistin may play an important role in insulin resistance. Its function in the human organism has not been elucidated yet. Since in common population the resistin concentrations are not known (no validated commercial set is available), we performed resistin assessment using the ELISA method (with satisfying analytical characteristics) in a population of 123 non-obese probands without signs of insulin resistance and/or inflammation. Mean resistin values amounted to 14.3 ng/ml (reference limit of 7.3-21.3 ng/ml).

Background: Resistin, an adipocyte secreted factor, has been suggested to link obesity with type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance in rodent models but its relevance to human diabetes remains uncertain. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between serum resistin concentrations with insulin resistance and obesity indices in type 2 diabetes and non-diabetic obese subjects.Met...

Plasma resistin levels correlate with determinants of the metabolic syndrome.

OBJECTIVE The role of resistin in insulin sensitivity and obesity is controversial. Some authors suggest that increased serum resistin levels are associated with obesity, visceral fat, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes and inflammation, while others failed to observe such correlations. The aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship of plasma resistin levels with markers of t...
