Obesity is one of the most potent risk factors for insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes, but the molecular mechanisms underlying this link are poorly understood. The fat-derived hormone resistin has been postulated to be part of that mechanism, but its role in glucose homeostasis has been controversial. Banerjee et al.

Association of resistin polymorphisms with resistin levels and lipid profile in children
Molecular Biology Reports, 2014Previous research has found a correlation between resistin and lipid level variations. Polymorphisms in the resistin gene (RETN) could be involved in this relationship, but the results of the different studies are contradictory. The aim of this study was to examine the association between resistin and lipid levels, and to determine whether resistin ...

Resistin and Postburn Insulin Dysfunction
Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection & Critical Care, 2009Postburn insulin dysfunction is a significant contributor to morbidity and mortality. A satisfactory mechanism for explaining this phenomenon remains elusive; however, resistin has been postulated to be involved. Initially discovered as an insulin antagonist secreted from adipose tissue in murine models, resistin's function in humans has been more ...

Resistin, an adipocyte-secreted cytokine recently discovered in mice, has been proposed as a link between obesity and diabetes. We analyzed resistin gene polymorphisms and examined their association with serum resistin level and obesity phenotypes in humans.Sixty young, obese, non-diabetic subjects taking no medication were studied.

Obesity, a major global epidemic of this century, is associated with type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and various types of cancer. Cancer is among the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Many adipose tissue-derived biomarkers are associated with risks of cancer.

Journal of Black Studies, 2008
In recent years, scholarship on Black womanhood has become more closely connected to postmodern discourses on identity and resistance, following in the footsteps of Audre Lorde’s claim that identity and sexuality have emancipatory potential. However, in the post-hip-hop era, feminists and media critics have once again brought up the idea of who ...
