The research status of Asprosin and its application prospect in the protection of myocardial injury

Asprosin is a newly discovered protein hormone that promotes appetite,regulates glucose homeostasis,increases insulin resistance and has potential myocardial protection.Myocardium is vulnerable to oxidative stress injury caused by factors such as high glucose,anti-tumor drugs,ischemia reperfusion and so on,and currently there is a lack of effective preventive measures.It has been reported in the literature that Asprosin has a unique protective effect on myocardium,but the protective mechanism of Asprosin is not clear.In this paper,the general situation and functions of Asprosin,as well as the protective mechanism of Asprosin on myocardium were reviewed,in order to provide reference for the application of Asprosin in the treatment of cardio-related diseases.
