Macrophage-derived human resistin is induced in multiple helminth infections and promotes inflammatory monocytes and increased parasite burden. [PDF]
, 2015 Parasitic helminth infections can be associated with lifelong morbidity such as immune-mediated organ failure. A better understanding of the host immune response to helminths could provide new avenues to promote parasite clearance and/or alleviate ...

Data in Brief, 2019 Resistin is an adipokine produced in white adipose tissue that is thought to modulate insulin sensitivity in peripheral tissues (such as liver, skeletal muscle or adipose tissue). Human and murine resistin molecules share only about 60% sequence homology.

Serum resistin is causally related to mortality risk in patients with type 2 diabetes: Preliminary evidences from genetic data [PDF]
, 2017 Resistin has been firmly associated with all-cause mortality. We investigated, whether, in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D), this association is sustained by a cause-effect relationship.

Measurement of Salivary Resistin Level in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes
International Journal of Endocrinology, 2012 Serum resistin was initially hypothesized as a link between obesity and insulin resistance in mice. The latest evidence suggests that serum resistin is proinflammatory cytokines.

RPB4 and pathogenesis of diabetes [PDF]
, 2007 Obesity is an important risk factor for a number of chronic diseases that impose a huge burden on individuals and society. Recently it has become clear that adipose tissue-secreted products may play a significant role in mediating many obesity-related ...

Kidney International, 2006 To the Editor: Recently, Axelsson et al.1 showed that glomerular filtration rate was consistently associated with serum resistin levels in patients with chronic kidney disease. It was found that the significant relationship between plasma resistin levels and insulin resistance was lost after adjustment for glomerular filtration rate, leading to the ...

Metabolic and cardiac adaptation to chronic pharmacologic blockade of facilitative glucose transport in murine dilated cardiomyopathy and myocardial ischemia [PDF]
, 2018 GLUT transgenic and knockout mice have provided valuable insight into the role of facilitative glucose transporters (GLUTs) in cardiovascular and metabolic disease, but compensatory physiological changes can hinder interpretation of these models.
