Aims
It has been suggested recently that follistatin (FST) and its homologous protein, follistatin‐like 3 (FSTL3), may be a therapeutic target in the treatment of type 2 diabetes because of their glucose‐regulatory effects in rodents.
Materials and Methods
We investigated this hypothesis in humans by studying the physiology of a possible glycaemia–follistatin feedback loop, that is, whether glucose,...
Excess body weight has been implicated in the pathogenesis of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). We thus explored the role of serum fetuin-A reflecting ectopic hepatic fat deposition when storage capacity of adipocytes has been exceeded, free leptin reflecting overall fat mass and adiponectin reflecting visceral fat mass, all potential mediators of the effects of obesity on insulin resistance and, consequently,...
