ABSTRACT

The aim of the study was to measure serum levels of Resistin in impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and Newly diagnosed type 2 diabetics (NDT2D) and compare with healthy control subjects. In this study 61 IGT, 61 NDT2D and 61 healthy subjects (age and gender matched) were enrolled. Insulin and Resistin were assessed. Serum Resistin levels were higher in IGT and NDT2D subjects compared with healthy controls (9.16±3.06ng/ml, 14.5±5.31ng/ml vs 5.11±1.56ng/ml, respectively, p<0.0001). Increased serum Resistin levels in IGT and NDT2D over healthy subjects.

Key words: Resistin, IGT, NDT2D
