Osteoprotegerin in Cardiometabolic Disorders
Osteoprotegerin (OPG), a glycoprotein traditionally implicated in bone remodelling, has been recently related to cardiovascular disease (CVD). Human studies show a positive relationship between circulating OPG, vascular damage, and CVD, and as such OPG has emerged as a potential biomarker for CVD. This review focuses on the relationship between circulating OPG and different endocrine cardiometa...
متن کامل[Adiponectin and low cardiometabolic risk in obese women].
OBJECTIVE To investigate the association between elevated levels of plasmatic adiponectin (AdipoQ) and low cardiometabolic risk (CMR) in obese women (O(b)W). SUBJECTS AND METHODS Case-control study, matched by age, of 306 O(b)W, BMI > 30 kg/m², with 66 cases (21.6%) - all non-hypertensive, normolipidemic, and non-diabetic - conducted in SUS (Brazil's Public Health System) outpatient referral ...
متن کاملAdiponectin gene variants, adiponectin isoforms and cardiometabolic risk in type 2 diabetic patients
AIMS/INTRODUCTION The aim of the present study was to examine the associations of rs2241766 (+45T>G), rs1501299 (+276G>T), rs17300539 (-11391G>A) and rs182052 (-10069G>A) in the adiponectin (Ad) gene with adiponectin concentrations, and concomitantly the association of these variants with cardiometabolic risk in type 2 diabetic patients of African ancestry. MATERIALS AND METHODS A cross-secti...
متن کاملAPPL1: role in adiponectin signaling and beyond.
Adiponectin, an adipokine secreted by the white adipose tissue, plays an important role in regulating glucose and lipid metabolism and controlling energy homeostasis in insulin-sensitive tissues. A decrease in the circulating level of adiponectin has been linked to insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, atherosclerosis, and metabolic syndrome. Adiponectin exerts its effects through two membrane r...
متن کاملThe Complexity Beyond Monogenic Disorders
Twelve years after the identification of the molecular bases of the long-QT syndrome, it is now possible to express some considerations on the impact that genetic findings have had in the understanding of inherited arrhythmogenic diseases. Along with the excitement for the emerging data on genotype/phenotype correlation and for the development of the first recommendations for gene-specific mana...
