Abstract excerpt
AIM/INTRODUCTION: Resistin, which induces insulin resistance, is mainly expressed in monocytes/macrophages in humans. We reported previously that serum resistin was highest in the G-A haplotype defined by resistin single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at -420 (rs1862513) and - 358 (rs3219175). As sarcopenic obesity is associated with insulin resistance, we aimed to examine whether serum resistin and its...
