Relation of retinol binding protein4, visfatin and vitamin a in obese and non obese Iraqi patients with non alcoholic fatty liver disease

One of the most common public liver diseases over world is fatty which contain alcoholic and non-alcoholic liver. One-fourth among general population are impact Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) in worldwide.Retinol binding protein 4 (RBP4) known as an adipokine, mainly synthesized secreted from form adipose tissues. RBP4 acts a transporter specifically bound to retinol others Visfatin adipocytokine produced visceral fat tissue, skeletal muscles well Vitamin A absorbed, transported retinyl esters then hydrolyzed storage hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) after reesterified with riglycerides. Hepatic binds its carrier transport target Methods: Ninety serum blood samples were collected distributed into three groups: First group (G1) contained (34) patients obese NAFLD. Second (G2) (26) non NAFLD control (G3) (30) patients. Ultrasound was used confirm diagnosis nonalcoholic disease by examining abdomen.
