Insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes are not related to resistin expression in human fat cells or skeletal muscle.

Biochemical and biophysical research communications - 13 Jul 2001

Nagaev I, Smith U

Abstract excerpt

Resistin is secreted by rodent fat cells and was recently postulated to be an important link between obesity and insulin resistance. We examined Resistin gene expression with real-time RT-PCR in human isolated fat cells, adipose tissue, and muscle from 42 individuals of varying degrees of overweight and who had normal insulin sensitivity or were insulin-resistant or Type 2 diabetic. Resistin was not expressed in...
