Plasma resistin levels decreased following either endurance aerobic exercise and/or resistance training plans in individuals with obesity and/or insulin resistance, although this was not related to BMI change.
The adipokine resistin exhibits proinflammatory, proangiogenic and metastatic properties, and evidence suggests that resistin may serve as a prognostic biomarker linking obesity and inflammation to cancer.
The aim of this research was to assess leptin, adiponectin and resistin secretion in obese postmenopausal women with osteoporosis and determine whether obesity might be a factor mitigating the risk of osteoporosis.
Several clinical and experimental studies have identified resistin as a key hormone linking insulin-resistance to obesity, notably through the activation of Toll Like Receptor (TLR) 4 signaling pathways.
Resistin promotes hypothalamic neuroinflammation and insulin resistance through Toll like receptor 4 (TLR4), this hormone is thought to be a link between obesity and insulin-resistance.
The aim of this study was to investigate the association between the RANKL and c-Fos gene methylation on obesity with body mass index (BMI), lipid parameters, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), plasma leptin, adiponectin and resistin levels.
It was found that resistin expression is significantly correlated with lipid profile and inflammatory status in obesity and atherosclerotic groups, and PPARγ agonist administration significantly improves inflammatory status and dyslipidemic profile across studied groups (p < .05).
The effects of obesity on adipocytes include upregulation of pro-inflammatory adipokines such as leptin and resistin, downregulation of anti-inflammatory adipokine, and also the stimulation of pro-inflammatory cytokine production by macrophages.
We aimed to investigate the relationship between changes in serum resistin levels with metabolic parameters, including obesity and inflammatory markers in women free of CVD.
The main determinants of resistin level in patients with T2DM are the level of renal function and inflammation rather than presence of microvascular complications, obesity and insulin resistance.
Beyond mechanical loading, adipokines, including leptin, visfatin, adiponectin, resistin and others, are demonstrated to have metabolic implications in the pathogenesis and progression in obesity-induced osteoarthritis by modulating the pro/anti-inflammatory and anabolic/catabolic balance, apoptosis, matrix remodeling and subchondral bone ossification.
Upregulated expression of resistin, vaspin, apelin and TNF-α plays a significant role in induction of insulin resistance linked with obesity and type 2 diabetes.
In this study, we aimed to examine the expression of resistin (Retn), amylin (Iapp), and dopamine receptor domain 5 (Drd5) genes previously suggested to contribute to the pathogenesis of obesity, albeit controversially.
This study was designed to estimate the possibility of utilizing psoriasin, nestin, keratin-16 (Krt16), and interleukin-21 (IL-21) as biochemical markers of psoriasis, to correlate these candidate psoriatic markers with biomarkers of obesity [body mass index (BMI), leptin, and resistin], and to elucidate the bidirectional association between obesity and psoriasis.
DNAJC27 was found to be associated with leptin and resistin, adipokines known to be dysregulated in obesity, that stimulate inflammatory processes leading to metabolic disorders.
This study was to investigate the prevalence of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in RETN gene 420C/G; 44G/A; 62G/A; 394C/G and 299 G/A and their association with Resistin level and obesity in Tunisian volunteers.
In addition to traditional clinical cardiometabolic markers, plasma resistin and ghrelin may be good predictors of heightened vulnerability to cardiometabolic diseases in overweight/obese young adults with poor-quality sleep.
