Circulating Betatrophin Is Increased in Patients with Overt and Subclinical Hypothyroidism [PDF]

BioMed Research International, 2016
Thyroid hormone (TH) affects many metabolic processes such as promoting oxidation of sugar, fat, and protein in many tissues. Thyroid dysfunction is associated with metabolic disorders. The newly discovered adipocyte- and hepatocyte-derived cytokine, betatrophin, has been reported to be involved in metabolic diseases, but its influence on thyroid ...

Plasma betatrophin levels in patients with liver cirrhosis

World Journal of Gastroenterology, 2015
To investigate the plasma levels of betatrophin in patients with cirrhosis.Forty patients diagnosed at the clinic with liver cirrhosis according to biological, ultrasonographic, or histological criteria were included. The severity of cirrhosis was classified according to Pugh's modification of Child's classification and MELD score.

Serum betatrophin level of newly diagnosed and chronic diabetic patients and its relationship with metabolic parameters: Betatrophin levels in diabetes

Chronic Diseases Journal, 2023
BACKGROUND: Angiopoietin-like protein 8 (ANGPTL8) that was originally called betatrophin is a novel growth factor which is mainly secreted by the liver and associated with diabetes. Hence, it can be considered as a clinical parameter for diagnosis or treatment of diabetes.

Betatrophin: A Hormone that Controls Pancreatic β Cell Proliferation [PDF]

, 2013
SummaryReplenishing insulin-producing pancreatic β cell mass will benefit both type I and type II diabetics. In adults, pancreatic β cells are generated primarily by self-duplication. We report on a mouse model of insulin resistance that induces dramatic

Relationship of valproic acid, hepatosteatosis and serum betatrophin

, 2023
Abstract Purpose:With weight gain and/or obesity, adipocytokine levels in the blood change and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) develops. In this study, we aimed to evaluate how serum betatrophin and homeostasis model assessment insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) are affected in children receiving valproic acid (VPA) monotherapy and whether ...

Association of Serum Betatrophin with Fibroblast Growth Factor-21 in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

Endocrinology Research and Practice, 2018
Betatrophin and fibroblast growth factor-21 (FGF-21), as recently discovered members of hepatokine/adipokine family, have been proposed to be associated with some metabolic disorders in which insulin resistance plays a major role. We aimed to investigate
