CCL2 Serum Levels and Adiposity Are Associated with the Polymorphic Phenotypes ‐2518A on CCL2 and 64ILE on CCR2 in a Mexican Population with Insulin Resistance

Journal of Diabetes Research, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
Genetic susceptibility has been described in insulin resistance (IR). Chemokine (C‐C motif) ligand‐2 (CCL2) is overexpressed in white adipose tissue and is the ligand of C‐C motif receptor‐2 (CCR2). The CCL2 G‐2518A polymorphism is known to regulate gene expression, whereas the physiological effects of the CCR2Val64Ile polymorphism are unknown. The aim

Low CD36 and LOX‐1 Levels and CD36 Gene Subexpression Are Associated with Metabolic Dysregulation in Older Individuals with Abdominal Obesity

Journal of Diabetes Research, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
Background. Obesity study in the context of scavenger receptors has been linked to atherosclerosis. CD36 and LOX‐1 are important, since they have been associated with atherogenic and metabolic disease but not fat redistribution. The aim of our study was to determinate the association between CD36 and LOX‐1 in presence of age and abdominal obesity ...

The 482Ser of PPARGC1A and 12Pro of PPARG2 Alleles Are Associated with Reduction of Metabolic Risk Factors Even Obesity in a Mexican‐Mestizo Population

BioMed Research International, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between functional polymorphisms Gly482Ser in PPARGC1A and Pro12Ala in PPARG2 with the presence of obesity and metabolic risk factors. We included 375 individuals characterized as Mexican‐Mestizos and classified by the body mass index (BMI).

Serum Levels of Anticyclic Citrullinated Peptide Antibodies, Interleukin‐6, Tumor Necrosis Factor‐α, and C‐Reactive Protein Are Associated with Increased Carotid Intima‐Media Thickness: A Cross‐Sectional Analysis of a Cohort of Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients without Cardiovascular Risk Factors

BioMed Research International, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
The main cause of death in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is cardiovascular events. We evaluated the relationship of anticyclic citrullinated peptide (anti‐CCP) antibody levels with increased carotid intima‐media thickness (cIMT) in RA patients. Methods. Forty‐five anti‐CCP positive and 37 anti‐CCP negative RA patients, and 62 healthy controls (HC) were ...

The Impact of LEP G‐2548A and LEPR Gln223Arg Polymorphisms on Adiposity, Leptin, and Leptin‐Receptor Serum Levels in a Mexican Mestizo Population

BioMed Research International, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
The polymorphisms in leptin (LEP G‐2548A) and leptin‐receptor (LEPR Gln223Arg) seem to influence obesity and lipid metabolism among others. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of these polymorphisms on adiposity, leptin (sLeptin), and leptin‐receptor (sLeptin‐receptor) serum concentrations as well as inflammation markers.
