Adipokines as mediators of endothelial function and atherosclerosis
(2013)For many decades, adipose tissue was considered as an inactive body compartment that was only used as an energy store. During the recent years, an increasing amount of data has revealed that adipose tissue is a major ... -
Adiponectin, resistin, and visfatin in childhood obesity and exercise
(2015)Childhood obesity is increasing alarmingly, and a strong association with chronic diseases has been established. Specific adipokines are released from the adipose tissue and relate with chronic diseases even in the pediatric ... -
Adiponectin: a key playmaker adipocytokine in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease
(2014)Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the hepatic manifestation of metabolic syndrome and can progress to cirrhosis, liver failure, and hepatocellular carcinoma. In the last two decades, the prevalence of NAFLD has ... -
Association of Bone Mineral Density, Parameters of Bone Turnover, and Body Composition in Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
(2012)Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) often develop osteoporosis. Many hormones regulate bone metabolism and body composition, and some of them are affected in COPD patients vs controls. In 46 COPD ... -
The Association of Metabolic Syndrome with Adipose Tissue Hormones and Insulin Resistance in Patients with COPD without Co-morbidities
(2011)Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and metabolic syndrome represent common causes of morbidity and mortality in ageing populations. The effect of the co-existence of COPD and metabolic syndrome on adipose tissue ... -
The associations between dairy product consumption and biomarkers of inflammation, adipocytokines, and oxidative stress in children: A cross-sectional study
(2020)The association between dairy product consumption and biomarkers of inflammation, adipocytokines, and oxidative stress is poorly studied in children. Therefore, these associations were examined in a representative subsample ... -
Blood ghrelin, adiponectin and resistin levels during controlled ovarian stimulation in IVF cycles
(2016)The aim of the present study was to investigate changes of blood ghrelin, adiponectin and resistin levels in IVF/ICSI-ET cycles. Twenty women were stimulated with recombinant FSH in a GnRH agonist short protocol for IVF/ICSI. ... -
Clinical significance of serum adipokines levels in lung cancer
(2013)Adipokines have a significant effect on metabolism, immunoinflammatory responses as well as on carcinogenesis; therefore, we aimed at evaluating their potential predictive and prognostic significance in lung cancer. Eighty ... -
Effect of adiponectin on estradiol and progesterone secretion from human luteinized granulosa cells in vitro
(2021)Ιnformation on the role of adiponectin in human ovarian steroidogenesis is limited. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of different doses of adiponectin on the secretion of estradiol and progesterone by human ... -
Effects of smoking cessation on serum leptin and adiponectin levels
(2015)Background: Evidence on the association of leptin and adiponectin and smoking is limited and discordant. Leptin and adiponectin represent the most abundant adipokines in human plasma that play crucial roles in the ... -
The implication of adiponectin and resistin in gastrointestinal diseases
(2011)Adiponectin and resistin, members of the adipokine family, are multi-task hormones involved in several disorders, including those of the alimentary tract. In the present review, eligible studies focusing on the role of ... -
Interrelations among the adipocytokines leptin and adiponectin, oxidative stress and aseptic inflammation markers in pre- and early-pubertal normal-weight and obese boys
(2017)Purpose: Presumed interrelationships among deleterious aspects of adipose tissue metabolism, inflammation, and cellular oxidative stress could be influenced by pubertal hormonal changes. They were investigated in pre- and ... -
Plasma leptin and adiponectin in COPD exacerbations: Associations with inflammatory biomarkers
(2010)Background: Various systemic inflammatory markers have been evaluated for their value in acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Leptin and adiponectin have been linked to acute exacerbations ...
