Genetic variants of resistin and its plasma levels: Association with obesity and dyslipidemia related to type 2 diabetes susceptibility

Abstract: Resistin, an adipokine, is involved in obesity and Type 2 Diabetes (T2D). The current study evaluates the association between RETN polymorphisms (-638 G/A, -420C/G & -358 G/A) and the risk towards T2D. Controls and T2D patients were enrolled from Gujarat, India. Polymorphisms of RETN were genotyped by Polymerase Chain Reaction-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism. For the genotype-phenotype correlation analysis Fasting Blood Glucose (FBG), Body Mass Index (BMI) and plasma lipid profile were used. Plasma le… Show more

“…SNPs are found in the RETN promoter and 3'-untranslated regions [14]. Genetic variation at the RETN locus carries a risk of several diseases, including the metabolic syndrome and colon cancer [15,16] and those with a functional RETN gene polymorphism at -420 (rs1862513) are at risk of developing type 2 diabetes [17,18], and associated with obesity in Tunisian population [19]. RETN SNPs have been found to correlated with worsening disease in Chinese Han patients with lung cancer [20].…”

“…These findings also suggest the association of +276G/T (rs1501299) with Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD), co-morbidity associated with T2D as supported by Wang et al 43 . Additionally, we have also found increased levels of TNFα, Free Fatty Acids (FFA) and resistin in obese patients 17,44 . Since TNFα is shown to be an important regulator of adiponectin multimerization 45 , our observations of increased TNFα, reduced adiponectin transcript and HMW adiponectin levels in obese patients are self-explanatory.…”

“…This research demonstrated that TLR4 serves as a receptor mediating the proinflammatory effects of resistin in human cells [153]. RETN 2KB upstream variant rs1862513 C has been found to correlate with a higher BMI [132,133]. This finding is in contrast to a study indicating that Retn KO mice do not manifest any alteration in adiposity [201].…”
