Resistin Is an Inflammatory Marker of Atherosclerosis in Humans (2005, methodology): “To explore the range of resistin values in different human samples, we examined plasma levels in (1) SIRCA subgroups: (a) subjects with BMI 35 kg/m(2) (n 72) and (b) subjects with NCEP-defined metabolic syndrome (n 249); (2) our type 2 diabetic sample; and (3) young healthy subjects with repeated bl”
Endocrine regulation of energy metabolism: review of pathobiochemical and clinical chemical aspects of leptin, ghrelin, adiponectin, and resistin. (2004, background): “(118) later provided supporting data that FIZZ2/RELM is also present in rapidly dividing epithelia by demonstrating a marked increase in intestinal tumors compared with control epithelia.”
Role of the adipocyte, free fatty acids, and ectopic fat in pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus: peroxisomal proliferator-activated receptor agonists provide a rational therapeutic approach. (2004, background): “Resistin, initially characterized as an insulin resistance factor, is a member of a family of resistin-like molecules that belong to the FIZZ (found in inflammatory zone) protein family (resistin is FIZZ3) (136, 190).”
Adipose Tissue (2006, positive): “A novel family of cytokines has emerged over the last couple of years, initially reported by Mitch Lazar’s (11,35) group at the University of Pennsylvania.”
Metabolic Syndrome and Insulin Resistance: Underlying Causes and Modification by Exercise Training (2013, positive): “Resistin levels do, however, correlate well with other inflammatory factors, including CRP peptide and the presence of atherosclerosis (318,472,529,588,611).”
Resistin, an Adipokine with Potent Proinflammatory Properties1 (2005, background): “5-kDa adipokine that is a member of a cysteine-rich secretory protein family (1).”
