目的:探讨单纯性肥胖症患者外周血肥胖抑制素Obestatin、Ghrelin的变化以及与胰岛素抵抗(Insulin resistance,IR)的关系。方法:选取我校2017、2018级学生为研究对象,分为体质指数(Body mass index,BMI)≥28㎏·m^-2的单纯性肥胖症组...目的:探讨单纯性肥胖症患者外周血肥胖抑制素Obestatin、Ghrelin的变化以及与胰岛素抵抗(Insulin resistance,IR)的关系。方法:选取我校2017、2018级学生为研究对象,分为体质指数(Body mass index,BMI)≥28㎏·m^-2的单纯性肥胖症组(n=30)和正常对照组(n=20)。分别采用放免法、酶联免疫吸附测定法、血清生化法检测血清Obestatin和Ghrelin、空腹血清胰岛素(Fasting serum insulin,FINS)、空腹血糖。计算胰岛素抵抗指数(Homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance,HOMA-IR)。结果:与正常对照组相比,单纯性肥胖症患者血清Obestatin、Ghrelin明显降低(P<0.05),HOMA-IR、Ghrelin/Obestatin(G/O)比值明显升高(P<0.05)。相关性分析显示,血清G/O比值与BMI、腰臀比(Waist to hip ratio,WHR)、FINS和HOMA-IR均呈正相关(r=0.556,0.499,0.475,0.491,P<0.05);与高密度脂蛋白胆固醇(High density lipoprotein cholesterol,HDLC)呈负相关(r=-0.501,P<0.01)。结论:血清Obestatin、Ghrelin水平改变以及G/O比值失衡可能参与肥胖和胰岛素抵抗的发生。展开更多
