Role of adipocytokines is in development of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease
This article is presented the results which confirmed participation of adipocytokines - adiponectin and resistin in the development and progressing of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. It is shown, presence of correlations between the level of adiponectin and degree of the ultrasonography liver steatosis, and also between the resistin's level, TNF-a and СRP. These data suggest that the level of adiponectin can be utillized as predicting of liver steatosis, and the resistin's level is associated with development advanced liver steatosis and risk of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis.
