The relationship between serum adiponectin and steatosis in patients with chronic hepatitis C genotype-4.

Clinical laboratory - 1 Jan 2010

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The mechanisms underlying steatosis during hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection are complex and multifactorial. The aim of our study was to assess whether host metabolic factors influence the degree of hepatic steatosis and fibrosis in patients infected with hepatitis C virus genotype 4 by investigating the role of adiponectin, leptin and insulin resistance. METHODS: Adiponectin and leptin levels, HCV...
