The role of adipokines in the regulation of cardiovascular function

The recent decades saw a steady growth of obesity incidence worldwide. Obesity is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and type 2 diabetes mellitus and is also associated with a shorter life expectancy. Not only hemodynamic but also hormone metabolic processes, arising from excessive accumulation of adipose tissue in human body, underlie the development of CVDs. Adipose tissue has now been proved to be a hormone-active substrate. Studies of the influence of adipokines will bring us closer to understanding cardiovascular pathogenesis and help personalize prophylactic strategies.

The urgency of obesity issue is undeniable. Obesity is now considered the most important risk factor of cardiovascular diseases. Numerous studies have demonstrated the negative effect of excessive adipose tissue on structural and functional changes in the heart that lead to development of left ventricular hypertrophy, arrhythmias and conduction abnormalities, as well as progression of diastolic and systolic heart failure. High prevalence of obesity – so high that it can be called a pandemic – greatly contributes to the increased incidence of cardiovascular diseases. Studying the problem of obesity is a priority area of focus for modern medicine. This article describes hormonal, metabolic and hemodynamic features of obesity impact on cardiovascular system and describes pathogenetic mechanisms of cardiovascular pathology development.
