Exploration of the Relationship between Adipocytokines, Tradition Risk Markers, Nontraditional Risk Markers and Anthropometric Measurements in T2DM Patients

Abstract: Obesity is commonly associated with type 2 diabetes and vascular disease. Changes in body composition in the obese state lead to a dysregulation of secretion of adipocyte-secreted hormones known as adipokines. The current study aimed to assess the relative physiological correlation of adipocytokines with immunity in urban Saudi patients. The serum adipocytokine (leptin, adiponectin, resistin, visfatin and apelin), metabolic parameters (insulin, fasting glucose, HbA1c % (Glycated Hemoglobin) immunological indic… Show more

“…Insulin resistance (IR) is categorized as a reduced capacity of target tissues to be responsive to insulin action. In addition, IR contributes to the development of metabolic disorders and T2DM, and is frequently linked to CVD [13]. This phenomenon is caused by significant defective in insulin-mediated glucose absorption, specifically glycogen composition, and glucose oxidation.…”

“…Insulin therapy is not used for T2DM [15] [24] [25]. IR in the principal insulin-target tissues is a well-known defect that occurs prior to the onset of type 2 diabetes [13]. Hyperinsulinemia, a prominent hallmark of the MetS is caused by excessive insulin secretion from β-cell that has been linked to the evolution of cardiovascular disease and T2DM [15].…”
