100 18672341 Hepatocytes exposed to resistin, but only in the presence of insulin, show a decrease in insulin-stimulated glycogen content.
101 18672341 These results strongly suggest that resistin effects glycogen metabolism at the protein level, and resistin is highly associated with insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes and is a candidate for the prevention and treatment of type 2 diabetes.

112 19684036 Biochemical analysis showed that resistin induces phosphorylation of Src and PI 3-K activation in human CD4-positive cells.
113 19684036 In addition, resistin activates RhoA, Rac-1, and Cdc42 in these cells as shown by affinity precipitation experiments.

116 20034466 The results showed that in HEC (i) resistin increased P-selectin expression; (ii) HG up-regulated Fk expression; (iii) P-selectin and fractalkine were functional increasing monocyte adhesion to activated cells.
117 20034466 Co-stimulation with resistin and HG increased P-selectin and fractalkine mRNA and protein and induced monocyte adhesion, generated an increase in NADPH oxidase activity and of the intracellular reactive oxygen species and activated the NF-kB and AP-1 transcription factors at similar values as those of each activator.
118 19699280 Furthermore, the results of quantitative RT-PCR analysis showed that emodin significantly elevated the mRNA expression level of PPARgamma and regulated the mRNA expressions of LPL, FAT/CD36, resistin and FABPs (ap2) in liver and adipocyte tissues.
119 20435848 Three antioxidants, seleno-L-methionine, ginsenoside Rb1, and MnTBAP (superoxide dismutase mimetic), effectively blocked resistin-induced eNOS downregulation.
120 20435848 Thus resistin directly induces eNOS downregulation through overproduction of ROS and activation of p38 and JNK in HCAECs.
121 20378819 In a subset analysis of 362 women who also had measurements of inflammatory and endothelial biomarkers, plasma resistin levels significantly correlated with IL-6, soluble TNF receptor 2, intercellular adhesion molecule 1, vascular adhesion molecule 1, and E-selectin after controlling for age and body mass index.
122 20121885 Additionally, fasting plasma glucose, insulin and homeostatis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) significantly decreased while adiponectin increased over threefold [9.7 (3.7-17.7) vs. 38.0 (19.3-42.4) microg/ml] without any changes in resistin.
123 20472602 The significant findings were that (a) fiaf gene expression was elevated two- to fourfold in visceral and subcutaneous fat from ob/ob mice, compared with lean controls; (b) the increase in fiaf mRNA in subcutaneous, but not visceral, fat from ob/ob mice was returned to lean control levels following 2 weeks of valsartan treatment; (c) fiaf expression was reduced in the hypothalamus, but not in the cortex or pituitary, of ob/ob mice; (d) rstn expression was greatly reduced in visceral fat from ob/ob mice, compared with lean controls, but this was unaffected by valsartan; and (e) rstn expression was unchanged in all other tissues from ob/ob mice, with or without valsartan treatment.
124 20819535 To evaluate the association between the four adipokines, adiponectin, leptin, resistin and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) with insulin sensitivity, we used a hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp to test insulin sensitivity in Chinese patients with obesity and type 1 or type 2 diabetes mellitus versus controls.
125 19211226 Total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, tumor necrosis factor-?, and resistin levels are elevated in patients with visfatin levels above the median value.
126 20699433 Insulin did not affect TNF-?, MCP-1, IL-6, LBP, resistin, and HMG-B1 increases induced by the LPS.
127 20300528 Resistin, secreted from adipocytes, causes insulin resistance in mice.
128 21159034 To investigate changes in maternal serum resistin levels during pregnancy and postpartum and clarify their relationship to insulin resistance.
129 21050256 Resistin levels were significantly higher in LS, where RAAS activity was high, when compared with HS balance, where RAAS activity was suppressed (6.36 vs 5.86 ?g/l, P < 0.0001); however, resistin concentrations were not associated with plasma renin activity or serum aldosterone on either diet. 25(OH)D levels were positively and independently associated with resistin in both dietary conditions (HS: ?=0.400, P-trend=0.027; LS: ?=0.540, P-trend=0.014).
130 21251282 Adiponectin and resistin are adipokines which modulate insulin action, energy, glucose and lipid homeostasis.
131 20827661 Moreover, serum resistin was not influenced by insulin resistance in either group examined.
132 20532833 Fasting serum was assayed for adiponectin, resistin, glucose, M30, M65, Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-1 (Timp-1), ProCollagen 3 N-terminal peptide (PIIINP), and hyaluronic acid (HA).
133 15517149 Our results add to growing evidence that resistin is associated with variation in weight, fat distribution and insulin resistance.
134 21442412 In addition, curcumin downregulates the inflammatory cytokines, resistin and leptin, and upregulates adiponectin as well as other associated proteins.
135 21282361 Although adipocyte-derived murine resistin links insulin resistance to obesity, the role of human resistin, predominantly expressed in mononuclear cells and induced by inflammatory signals, remains unclear.
136 21282361 Thus, human resistin may link insulin resistance to inflammatory diseases such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, and atherosclerosis.
137 21262584 Adipocytokines such as tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-?), C-reactive protein (CRP), adiponectin, leptin, resistin along with peroxisome proliferator activated receptor-? (PPAR-?) are important mediators in glucose homeostasis in association with CD36 and can be used as markers for T2DM and atherosclerosis.
138 15983036 Murine resistin reduced insulin-stimulated glucose uptake, establishing the heart as a resistin target tissue.
139 15983036 Notably, human resistin also impaired insulin action in mouse cardiomyocytes, providing the first evidence that human and mouse resistin homologs have similar functions.
140 15983036 Remarkably, unlike native resistin, monomeric C26A resistin had no effect on basal or insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in mouse cardiomyocytes.
141 18492747 The prevalence of insulin resistance increased with decreasing tertiles of adiponectin (from 10.9% in the third to 42.5% in the first tertile; P < 0.0001) and increasing tertiles of resistin (from 19.3 to 30.9%; P < 0.0001) and TNFalpha (from 18.8 to 32.0%; P < 0.0001).
142 19846171 Tumor necrosis factor alpha receptor 2 was still associated to HOMA-IR after adding adiponectin, resistin, and triglycerides (individually and simultaneously).
143 21205225 The MSG increased mRNA expression of interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF?), resistin and leptin, but adiponectin did not exhibit any changes.
144 21181202 Downregulation of resistin and leptin gene expression after bariatric surgery may play a role in normalizing obesity-associated insulin resistance.
145 18710472 Resistin causes insulin resistance and diabetes in mice whereas in humans it is linked to inflammation and atherosclerosis.
146 21285283 These results suggest that with increasing age autocrine effects of resistin in fat tissue may predispose to diabetes in part by impairing insulin action in adipose tissue.
147 21520070 Furthermore, resistin increased the expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) by HUVECs and these effects were also p38MAPK-dependent.
148 21520070 Resistin-induced monocyte adhesion was also blocked by monoclonal antibodies against ICAM-1 and VCAM-1.
149 21520070 Taken together, these results show that resistin increases both the expression of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 by endothelial cells and monocyte adhesion to HUVECs via p38MAPK-dependent pathways.
150 21694775 Additional in vitro analysis on adipokines regulating visfatin showed that only Abd Sc adipocytes treated with recombinant human (rh)IL-6 increased visfatin protein (*p<0.05), whilst rh visfatin treatment, itself, had no influence on TNF-?, IL-6 or resistin secretion from Sc adipocytes.
151 21694920 Fatty acid accumulation and resistin inhibit insulin and adiponectin.
152 21478152 Resistin has been suggested to be involved in the development of diabetes and insulin resistance.
153 21478152 Overexpression of resistin using adenoviral vector in neonatal rat ventricular myocytes was associated with inhibition of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activity, activation of tuberous sclerosis complex 2/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway, and increased cell size, [(3)H]leucine incorporation (i.e. protein synthesis) and mRNA expression of the hypertrophic marker genes, atrial natriuretic factor, brain natriuretic peptide, and ?-myosin heavy chain.
154 21478152 Resistin also stimulated the activation of p70(S6K), a downstream kinase target of mTOR, and increased phosphorylation of the IRS1 serine 636/639 residues, whereas treatment with rapamycin reduced the phosphorylation of these residues.
155 21478152 These data demonstrate that resistin induces cardiac hypertrophy and myocardial insulin resistance, possibly via the AMPK/mTOR/p70(S6K) and apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1/JNK/IRS1 pathways.
156 16203173 Obesity resulting from excess nutrient intake can also cause insulin resistance by an increase in the production of agents that impair insulin action such as TNFalpha and resistin and a decrease in the production of an insulin sensitizing compound adiponectin.
157 21778676 EPO resistance is associated with low body mass index (BMI) (coefficient ? =-0.393, p = 0.002) and with high serum resistin levels (coefficient ? = 0.332, p = 0.018).
158 21676224 We postulated that CPAP will decrease IR, ghrelin and resistin and increase adiponectin levels in this setting.
159 21676224 Fasting ghrelin decreased significantly while leptin, adiponectin and resistin remained unchanged.
160 21808585 Resistin, another protein secreted by the adipose tissue, derived its name due to its involvement in the development of insulin resistance.
161 21586564 Acutely administered resistin increased lumbar SNA but decreased BAT SNA.
162 21447495 In group 2, serum resistin was positively correlated with serum troponin I and triglycerides (r=0.59, p<0.05, and r=0.47, p<0.05, respectively), but was negatively correlated with high density lipoprotein cholesterol (r=-0.46, p<0.05).
163 21447495 However, in this group, serum resistin was not correlated with age, gender, body mass index (BMI), total cholesterol, FBG, insulin, CK, LDH, and the calculated homeostasis model for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) (p>0.05).
164 21774832 Furthermore, palmitoleic acid down-regulated mRNA expressions of proinflammatory adipocytokine genes (TNF? and resistin) in white adipose tissue and lipogenic genes (SREBP-1, FAS, and SCD-1) in liver.
165 21453187 In the patients with arthritis and MetS, resistin correlated positively with IL-6 (Pearson's r = 0.5, p = 0.03).
166 21750415 An immunofluorescence technique was used to examine the expression of resistin and its co-localization with insulin and glucagon in pancreatic islet cells.
167 21750415 Resistin co-localized with insulin but not glucagon in pancreatic islet cells of both normal and diabetic patients.
168 21241371 The adipokine resistin was positively and the potentially cardio-protective adiponectin was negatively correlated with the PASI (r = 0.50, P = 0.02 and r = -0.56, P = 0.007, respectively).
169 15793240 Adipose tissue gene expression in transgenic mice is characterized by decreased expression of leptin and resistin and increased expression of adiponectin, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma, and uncoupling protein 2.
170 21733717 In vitro, leptin and resistin induced increased factor Xa activity (leptin: 4.29±0.57-fold, p<0.05; resistin 4.19±0.7-fold, p<0.05 vs. control) on HUVECs as also reflected by elevated TF mRNA and protein expression.
171 21248294 Prior studies have found that in individuals with CKD, leptin is associated with fat mass but resistin is not and the associations with adiponectin are conflicting.
172 21885493 Spearman correlations and multivariable regressions were used to examine whether resistin levels were associated with SLE, disease-specific and inflammatory markers, insulin resistance, and CAC.
173 21885493 Resistin level did not correlate with markers of insulin resistance or body adiposity, including homeostatic model assessment or BMI.
174 21885493 Among subjects with SLE, higher resistin level correlated positively with renal dysfunction, inflammatory markers, and disease damage but not with insulin resistance or BMI.
175 21995154 Resistin is a potent regulator of glucose homeostasis which is thought to oppose the action of insulin in peripheral tissues.
