Abstract
The article presents
data on serum chemerin levels and its relation to insulin
resistance in hypertensive patients with
obesity. The results show the increase in
serum chemerin levels in patients with hypertension compared healthy subjects
with the highest levels in early stages of obesity that may contribute to
development of insulin resistance. Advanced grades of obesity
that are
characterized
by already established hyperinsulinemia are characterized by lower
serum chemerin levels compared to grade I obesity.
