Resistin is an adipocyte-secreted hormone proposed to link obesity with insulin resistance and diabetes, but no previous study has performed a joint quantitative evaluation of white adipose tissue (WAT) resistin mRNA expression and serum levels in relation to insulinemia and glycemia in mice. We have thus comparatively assessed WAT resistin mRNA expression and serum resistin levels in lean C57BL/6J mice and various mouse models of obesity, including diet-induced obese (DIO) C57BL/6J mice, high…

Mechanisms of antidiabetogenic and body weight-lowering effects of estrogen in high-fat diet-fed mice.

It is suggested that E(2) treatment exerts antidiabetic and antiobesity effects in HFD mice and suggest that this is related to decreased expression of lipogenic genes in WAT and liver and suppression of hepatic expression of G-6-Pase.

Adiponectin induced AMP-activated protein kinase impairment mediates insulin resistance in Bama mini-pig fed high-fat and high-sucrose diet

AMPK impairment induced by adiponectin decrease mediates insulin resistance in high-fat and high-sucrose diet induction in obese Bama mini-pigs, which has the possibility of a conformable model for human metabolic diseases.

Resistin’s, obesity and insulin resistance: the continuing disconnect between rodents and humans

Mounting evidence reveals a continuing disconnect between resistin’s role in rodents and humans due to significant differences between these two species with respect to resistin's gene and protein structure, differential gene regulation, tissue-specific distribution, and insulin resistance induction as well as a paucity of evidence regarding the resistin receptor and downstream signaling mechanisms of action.

Comparison of the obesity phenotypes related to monosodium glutamate effect on arcuate nucleus and/or the high fat diet feeding in C57BL/6 and NMRI mice.

In this study, susceptibility of inbred C57BL/6 and outbred NMRI mice to monosodium glutamate (MSG) obesity or diet-induced obesity (DIO) was compared in terms of food intake, body weight, adiposity…

Effects of a high‐fat, low‐versus high‐glycemic index diet: retardation of insulin resistance involves adipose tissue modulation

An LGI high‐fat diet maintains higher glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity via adipose tissue modulation solely because of a difference in the type of carbohydrate, supporting a nutritional approach in the fight against insulin resistance.

Low resistin levels in adipose tissues and serum in high-fat fed mice and genetically obese mice: development of an ELISA system for quantification of resistin.

Circulating resistin levels are not associated with obesity or insulin resistance in humans and are not regulated by fasting or leptin administration: cross-sectional and interventional studies in normal, insulin-resistant, and diabetic subjects.

Cross-sectional studies in middle-aged women and healthy young subjects found that serum resistin levels did not correlate with markers of adiposity, including body mass index, waist-to-hip ratio, or fat mass, or insulin resistance assessed by homeostasis model, lipid profile, or serum leptin levels; but females had higherresistin levels than males.

Adiponectin expression is restored to normal levels after body-weight reduction, supporting its link with obesity-related insulin resistance and demonstrating the presence of resistin in immunocompetent cells in both humans and rats, adding another factor to the list of molecules that adipose tissue shares with the immune system.

Results demonstrate that an insulin-resistant instance in the fructose diet rat model exists with the decreased gene expression of resistin, and free fatty acids were found to suppress the expression ofresistin gene in normal rat adipocytes.

Resistin and obesity-associated insulin resistance

High serum resistin is associated with an increase in adiposity but not a worsening of insulin resistance in Pima Indians.

It is suggested that resistin promotes obesity but not obesity-associated insulin resistance in humans, and high serum resistin levels do predict future increases in percent body fat.

Decreased resistin expression in mice with different sensitivities to a high-fat diet.

It is shown that feeding a high-fat diet is not a primary determinant of resistin regulation, and obesity induced by gold thioglucose injection in FVB/n mice reduces the expression ofresistin in isolated adipocytes, arguing for decreased expression of resistsin as a hallmark of obesity.

Resistin gene expression in human adipocytes is not related to insulin resistance.

Together these findings do not support an important role of adipose-tissue resistin gene expression in human insulin resistance.

Humoral regulation of resistin expression in 3T3-L1 and mouse adipose cells.

It is found that resistin expression in 3T3-L1 adipocytes was significantly upregulated by high glucose concentrations and was suppressed by insulin, suggesting that these factors affect insulin sensitivity and fat tissue mass in part by altering the expression and eventual secretion of resistin from adipose cells.

It is concluded that the recently described relationships of murine resistin/Fizz3 expression with obesity, insulin resistance, and PPAR-gamma action may not readily translate to humans.
