Resistin is a small secretory protein that has a pleiotropic role in rodents and humans. Both
rodent resistin and human resistin have an extremely stable and high‐order multimeric …

Resistin was originally described as an adipocyte-secreted peptide that induced insulin
resistance in rodents. Increasing evidence indicates its important regulatory roles in various …

Background Many researches suggested that obesity increased the risk of breast cancer, but
the mechanism was currently unknown. Adipocytokines might mediate the relationship. Our …

OBJECTIVE: Previous few studies have shown that resistin is significantly elevated in breast
cancer (BC) patients. Therefore, we investigated whether serum resistin could be used as a …

Regulation of apoptosis and cell cycle progression plays an essential role in the
maintenance of B-cell homeostasis, because a fine balance of survival and expansion is …

Introduction Adipose tissue secretes numerous bioactive peptides, collectively termed
“adipocytokines” or “adipokines”. Adipokines act in a paracrine, autocrine, or endocrine …

Accumulating evidence supports a role for obesity in the etiology of multiple myeloma (MM).
The distinct possibility exists that obesity may be linked to MM through altered adipokine …

AIM: To investigate the roles of the adipocytokines, ghrelin and leptin in gastric cancer
cachexia. METHODS: Resistin, ghrelin, leptin, adiponectin, insulin and insulin-like growth …

Obesity has become a global epidemic influencing the establishment and progression of a
wide range of diseases, such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. In 2016 …
