The bat Scotophilus heathi exhibit prolonged anovulatory condition known as delayed
ovulation coinciding with the period of extensive fat accumulation. The present study was …

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the expression and effect of resistin on ovarian
activities of Scotophilus heathi. Immunohistochemical study showed marked variation in …

Resistin, a hormone secreted by adipocytes, is thought to be important in reproduction. Our
previous study demonstrated resistin expression in porcine ovarian follicles and its direct …

Background Resistin was first reported to be an adipocyte-specific hormone, but recent
studies have indicated a connection between resistin and reproductive function. However, it …

The aim of this study was to investigate changes in circulating level of leptin in natural
population of male bat, Scotophilus heathi in relation to seasonal changes in body mass …

The bat Scotophilus heathi undergo anovulation, known as delayed ovulation, coinciding
with the period of seasonal adiposity due to fat accumulation. Because adiponectin is a well …

Resistin plays an important role in adipogenesis, obesity, insulin resistance, and
reproduction. Previous studies showed resistin action on ovarian follicular cells; however …

Resistin is an adipokine that has not been extensively studied in cattle but is produced by
adipocytes in greater amounts in lactating versus non-lactating cattle. Seven experiments …

In a previous study, we showed that resistin expression increased during ovarian follicle
development in prepubertal pigs and had direct effects on steroidogenesis, suggesting an …

Resistin, initially identified in adipose tissue and macrophages, was implicated in insulin
resistance. Recently, its mRNA was found in hypothalamo–pituitary axis and rat testis …
