Resistin in Urine and Breast Milk: Relation to Type of Feeding and Anthropometry at 1-Month
Pediatric Reports, 2022 Breast milk contains adipokines such as resistin and leptin and is known for its protective effect against obesity and insulin resistance. This pilot study aims to evaluate the correlation between resistin levels, feeding types (breast milk and formula),

Resistin polymorphims, plasma resistin levels and obesity in Tunisian volunteers [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, 2017 BackgroundAdipose tissue is an important endocrine organ that secretes a number of adipokines, like Resistin (RETN); it's an adipocytes‐secreted cytokine and has been proposed as a link between obesity and diabetes. Many resistin gene polymorphisms were described and their implication in obesity was controversial.

Periodontitis and metabolic diseases (diabetes and obesity): Tackling multimorbidity
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) are multifactorial, long‐term, chronic conditions that represent a burden to health‐care systems worldwide as they can only be controlled rather than cured; hence, they require long‐term care. With the exponential increase in NCDs, the occurrence of individuals presenting with more than one chronic disease is ...

Journal of Biomedical Science, 2009 Atorvastatin has been shown to reduce resistin expression in macrophages after pro-inflammatory stimulation. However, the mechanism of reducing resistin expression by atorvastatin is not known. Therefore, we sought to investigate the molecular mechanisms

Measurement of Plasma Resistin Concentrations in Horses with Metabolic and Inflammatory Disorders
Animals, 2021 Obesity and its associated complications, such as metabolic syndrome, are an increasing problem in both humans and horses in the developed world. The expression patterns of resistin differ considerably between species.

Dimerization of Resistin and Resistin-like Molecules Is Determined by a Single Cysteine [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2001 Resistin is a peptide hormone secreted by adipocytes. Cysteine residues comprise 11 of 94 (12%) amino acids in resistin. The arrangement of these cysteines is unique to resistin and its recently discovered family of tissue-specific secreted proteins, which have been independently termed resistin-like molecules (RELMs) and the FIZZ (found in ...

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.

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.

Association of ANGPTL8 and Resistin With Diabetic Nephropathy in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2021 BackgroundPrevious studies showed altered angiopoietin-like protein-8 (ANGPTL-8) and resistin circulating levels in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Whether or not the alteration in ANGPTL-8 and resistin level can be a predictive maker for increased ...
