Retinol-binding protein-4 in women with untreated essential hypertension.
BACKGROUND Retinol-binding protein-4 (RBP4) is a novel adipokine able to modulate the action of insulin in several tissues. A variable degree of insulin resistance characterizes the vast majority of hypertensive (HYP) patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between RBP4 and essential hypertension, exploring potential links between RBP4 and other adipokines with some pro...

متن کاملPlasma retinol-binding protein-4 concentrations are elevated in human subjects with impaired glucose tolerance and type 2 diabetes.
OBJECTIVE The dysregulation of adipokines is closely associated with the pathogenesis of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Retinol-binding protein-4 (RBP4), a new adipokine, was recently reported to provide a link between obesity and insulin resistance. Here, we examined the relation between plasma RBP4 concentrations and various metabolic parameters in humans. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHO...
متن کامل١ The Relationship of Plasma Visfatin and Retinol Binding Protein - 4 to Fat Composition - assessed
Background and objectives: Adipose tissue is responsible for releasing various adipokines which have been related to insulin resistance. Understanding the relationship of these adipokines to insulin resistance may help in early diagnosis and faster the development of new treatments for diabetes. The objective of this study was to determine the possible association between these adipokines (visf...
