The relationship between circulating irisin, retinol binding protein-4, adiponectin and inflammatory mediators in patients with metabolic syndrome

Abstract: Objective: We wanted to investigate whether there is a relationship between circulating irisin, retinol binding protein-4 (RBP-4), adiponectin and proinflammatory mediators implicated in the development of insulin resistance (IR) in metabolic syndrome (MetS). Subjects and methods: In 180 individuals, including controls and patients with MetS, we measured fasting plasma insulin, high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), pentraxin-3 (PTX-3), interleukin-33 (IL-33), irisin, RBP-4, and adiponectin using ELISA k… Show more

“…In the present study, reduced circulating levels of TNFα and hsCRP were detected after dietary weight loss intervention. In addition, lower levels of RBP4, an adipokine contributing to systemic IR and recently associated with hsCRP in the progression of metabolic syndrome [33], were detected. As a whole, inflammatory parameters were reduced after weight loss, suggesting a reduction in systemic inflammation mediated by caloric restriction.…”

“…Irisin may indicate a potentially novel therapeutic approach in the field of obesity and diabetes [ 6 ]. Circulating irisin level was reported to increase in the patients with metabolic syndrome compared with healthy controls [ 28 ].…”

“…2 When analysed the association between irisin and metabolic syndrome (MetS), a combination of various medical disorders including obesity and insulin resistance, higher circulating irisin levels in patients with MetS were also reported, when compared with patients without MetS. 25,39,58,59 Once again, caution needs to be taken in the analysis of these results; besides the controversy around irisin's detection methods, different studies protocols were performed and heterogeneous populations analysed, some of them with co-morbidities associated and others not.…”
