متن کاملModulation of Serum Vaspin Level by Diet Regimen in Obese Diabetic Female Patients
Obesity was associated with high serum vaspin concentrations and increased vaspin mRNA expression in human adipose tissue , insulin resistance, and type II diabetes. However, the mechanisms how vaspin secretion may be linked to deterioration of glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity are not understood.
