脂肪因子visfatin与代谢综合征的相关性

代谢综合征是以中心性肥胖、胰岛素抵抗、高血压、高三酰甘油血症、低高密度脂蛋白胆固醇、糖耐量下降或2型糖尿病为主要特征的综合征。脂肪细胞因子在代谢综合征发病中起了很重要的作用。Visfatin是日本科学家Fukuhara在2005年发现的一种新的脂肪细胞因子。现对代谢综合征的定义发展、脂肪因子visfatin及代谢综合征与visfatin的研究进展进行综述。

Associativity of Adipocytokin Visfatin with Metabolic Syndrome

Metabolic syndrome is a kind of syndrome characterized by central obesity, insulin resistance, high blood pressure,triglyceride hyperlipidemia and low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol,decreased glucose toleranee or type 2 diabetes. Adipocytokin has played a very important role in the pathogenesis of metabolic syndrome. Visfatin, an Japanese scientist named Fukuhara discovered in 2005, is a newly identified adipocytokine. This article reviews metabolic syndrome about its definition, its relationship with visfatin and its related progresses.
