Serum vaspin levels have a meal-related diurnal variation, suggesting a role for vaspin in metabolic regulation. However, the reciprocal relationship between serum vaspin and insulin may negate the importance of vaspin as an physiological insulin sensitizer.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
