1. Serum adipocytokine profile and metabolic syndrome in young adult female dermatomyositis patients
OBJECTIVES: To analyse the frequency of metabolic syndrome in young adult female dermatomyositis patients and its possible association with clinical and laboratory dermatomyositis-related features and serum adipocytokines. METHOD: This cross-sectional study included 35 dermatomyositis patients and 48 healthy controls. Metabolic syndrome was defined accordi

2. Avaliação de adipocitocinas em pacientes obesos com e sem doença periodontal. / Evaluation of adipocytokines in obese patients with and without periodontal disease.
Objetivo: O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar os níveis locais e circulantes de adipocitocinas (resistina, adiponectina, leptina, fator de necrose tumoral [TNF]-α e interleucina [IL] -6) em indivíduos obesos e de peso normal com periodontite crônica. Material e métodos: Obesos sem periodontite (n = 18), obesos com periodontite crônica (n = 20), ind

3. Adipocitocinas na síndrome antifosfolípide primária: potenciais marcadores de inflamação, resistência insulínica e síndrome metabólica / Adipocytokines in primary antiphospholipid syndrome: potential markers of inflammation, insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome
INTRODUCTION: Antiphospholipid syndrome is associated with accelerated atherosclerosis. Although adipocytokines play a key role in the interface between obesity, inflammation, insulin resistance and atherosclerosis, the exact nature and relative contribution of adipocytokines as potential markers warrant further investigation in primary antiphospholipid synd

4. Effect of dermolipectomy on insulin sensitivity in obese women, with stable weight, after bariatric surgery / Efeito da dermolipectomia na sensibilidade à insulina em mulheres obesas, em fase de estabilidade de peso, após cirurgia bariátrica
Obesity induces insulin resistance, which is one of the steps to type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. In this scenario, the role of visceral adipose tissue is undoubted, but the same is not true for subcutaneous adipose tissue, especially in abdominal region. This confirms the importance of analysis of composition and distribution of adipose tissue i

5. Adiponectina, TNF- alfa e IL-6 em pacientes portadores de obesidade grave : relação com a sensibilidade a insulina e com a tolerancia a glicose / Adiponectin, TNF- alfa and IL-6 in severe patients : relation to insulin sensitivity and glucose tolerance
Obesity is associated with a cluster of metabolic alterations such as insulin resistance, hypertension, and dyslipidemia and with a low-grade systemic inflammation, which is presumed to play a role in the development of insulin resistance, cardiovascular disease (CVD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). Adipocytokines or adipokines are synthesized by adipose

6. Increased oxidative stress in obesity and its impact on metabolic syndrome
Obesity is a principal causative factor in the development of metabolic syndrome. Here we report that increased oxidative stress in accumulated fat is an important pathogenic mechanism of obesity-associated metabolic syndrome. Fat accumulation correlated with systemic oxidative stress in humans and mice. Production of ROS increased selectively in adipose tis

7. A growing burden: the pathogenesis, investigation and management of non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease
Non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common hepatic disorder in western countries, and its incidence is increasing. This review outlines the significant health burden posed by NAFLD and discusses what is presently known about its pathogenesis, including the roles of the metabolic syndrome, obesity, insulin resistance, hepatic steatosis, re

8. Fat tissue and adiponectin: new players in critical care?
Historically, adipose tissue was thought to be a passive tissue that stores energy and protects the body from temperature and injury. In contrast to this concept, it is now evident that adipose tissue is an active endocrine organ secreting many kinds of adipocytokines, including adiponectin. Presumably, adipose tissue and its products may have some impact on

9. Human adipocytes secrete mineralocorticoid-releasing factors
Obesity has become an epidemic problem in western societies, contributing to metabolic diseases, hypertension, and cardiovascular disease. Overweight and obesity are frequently associated with increased plasma levels of aldosterone. Recent evidence suggests that human fat is a highly active endocrine tissue. Therefore, we tested the hypothesis that adipocyte
