The irresistible biology of resistin [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2003 Fuel sources have historically triggered many battles throughout the globe and will likely continue to do so. The design of biological systems is no different. Adipose tissue holds the richest energy sources and exerts substantial influence on the organism.

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 ...

Resistin expression in 3T3-L1 adipocytes is reduced by arachidonic acid
Journal of Lipid Research, 2005 The resistin gene is expressed in adipocytes and encodes a protein proposed to link obesity and type 2 diabetes. Increased plasma FFA is associated with insulin resistance.

An Update on the Emerging Role of Resistin on the Pathogenesis of Osteoarthritis
Mediators of Inflammation, 2019 Background. Resistin may be involved in the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis (OA), but a systematic understanding of the role of resistin in OA is lacking. Methods. We reviewed studies that evaluated the role of resistin in OA.

Mechanisms of Ageing and Development, 2019 From a biological point of view, aging can be considered a progressive inability of an organism to react to stress, maintain homeostasis, and survive unfavourable changes during post-maturational life. The expression of several adipokines changes during aging and for some changes, a role in the onset of chronic disease and frailty has been proposed ...

Resistin-binding peptide antagonizes role of resistin on white adipose tissue [PDF]
Acta Pharmacologica Sinica, 2007 To investigate the direct effects of resistin and resistin-binding peptide (RBP) on lipid metabolism and endocrine function in adipose tissue.Rat white adipose tissue was cultured in vitro and incubated for 24 h with 30 ng/mL recombinant rat resistin protein (rResistin) or combined with RBP of varying concentrations(1x10(-12) mol/L, 1x10(-10) mol/L ...

C-Reactive Protein and Interleukin-6 Correlated with Resistin Level in Liver Cirrhosis
The Indonesian Journal of Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Digestive Endoscopy, 2020 Background: The incidence of insulin resistance is very high in liver cirrhosis. Resistin is thought to be one of the factors contributing to the occurrence of insulin resistance. Liver Cirrhosis is a chronic inflammatory condition.
