Abstract
Obesity is the most common nutritional disease in dogs, and its prevalence has increased in recent decades. Several countries have demonstrated a prevalence of obesity in dogs similar to that observed in humans. Chronic low-grade inflammation is a prominent basis used to explain how obesity results in numerous negative health consequences. This is well known and understood, and recent studies have pointed to the association between obesity and predisposition to specific types of cancers and their complications. Such elucidations are important because, like obesity, the prevalence of cancer in dogs has increased in recent decades, establishing cancer as a significant cause of death for these animals. In the same way, intensive advances in technology in the field of human and veterinary medicine (which even proposes the use of animal models) have optimized existing therapeutic methods, led to the development of innovative treatments, and shortened the time to diagnosis of cancer. Despite the great challenges, this review aims to highlight the evidence obtained to date on the association between obesity, inflammation, and cancer in dogs, and the possible pathophysiological mechanisms that link obesity and carcinogenesis. The potential to control cancer in animals using existing knowledge is also presented.

Shehata WA, Maraee A, Wahab TAA, Azmy R. Serum resistin levels and resistin gene polymorphism in patients with acne vulgaris: does it correlate with disease severity? Int J Dermatol 2021; 60:1270-1277. [PMID: 34235732 DOI: 10.1111/ijd.15727] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2021] [Revised: 04/01/2021] [Accepted: 05/26/2021] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Acne vulgaris is a disease that inflames the sebaceous gland with multiple etiologies. Many proinflammatory adipokines contribute to this pathogenesis. Resistin is a proinflammatory mediator that activates kappa B, a nuclear factor, and c-Jun N-terminal kinases pathways inducing toll-like receptor-2, interleukin-1, 6, and tumor necrosis factor alpha. Resistin gene affects the promoter and intron regions' polymorphisms' expression levels. We aimed to study the association of resistin gene polymorphisms (RETN -420 C/G) and the development of acne vulgaris and whether it is associated with serum resistin levels and disease severity. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Resistin (RETN) gene (rs1862513) genotypes were identified using restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP), and serum resistin presence was assessed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in 40 patients with acne vulgaris and 40 age- and sex-matched healthy controls as a cross-reference. Patients were divided into mild, moderate, and severe groups. Global Acne Grading System (GAGS) was used to assess the severity of acne vulgaris. RESULTS CG and GG genotypes were present in cases (P = 0.006) odds ratio (OR)1 = 4.43; 95% confidence interval (CI) (1.53, 12.7) and OR2 = 5.47; 95% CI (0.99, 30.1); G-allele statistically dominated in the patient group where P = 0.001 and OR = 3.57; 95% CI (1.63, 7.80). A positive significant relationship between RETN genotypes and serum resistin levels and GAGS score was present. CONCLUSION RETN genes rs1862513 GG and G allele are correlated to acne vulgaris development and severity in a sample of the Egyptian population. This study comprised a small sample size. The cases may not accurately represent the general population; only one clinic was enrolled in the study.

Abstract
Resistin is associated with metabolic, inflammatory, and neoplastic disorders, and is also considered a prognostic marker in human oncology. Canine mammary tumors have epidemiological, clinical, biological, and genetic characteristics similar to those of women and are proposed as a comparative study model. Here, we evaluate the serum levels of resistin in female dogs with or without mammary carcinoma in mixed tumors (CBMT) and its correlation with the proliferative potential of the tumor, obesity, and survival. Eighty dogs grouped according to the presence (50) or absence (30) of CBMT, reproductive status and body condition were assessed for weight, fat percentage, and canine body mass index. The characteristic of the proliferative potential of the tumor (Ki-67) was evaluated. Ki-67 levels (p = 0.024), staging (p = 0.004), and grade (p = 0.016) influenced the survival of the female dogs. Through a multifactorial analysis, it could be seen that the parameters proliferation index (Ki-67) (p = 0.044) and staging (p = 0.036) influenced the survival of the animals. Neutered and overweight dogs from the control and CBMT groups showed hyperresistinemia. Ki-67 expression and resistin levels in dogs with CBMT were higher in overweight dogs than in dogs with normal weight (p = 0.0001). The survival rate of dogs with CBMT, obese and with high levels of resistin (8,400 μg L−1) was lower when compared to those with lower levels of resistin. These results showed an important relationship between hyperresistinemia, tumor proliferative potential and excessive body fat, suggesting that resistin levels may act as an interesting prognostic marker in patients with CBMT.

J Orthop Surg Res 2020; 15:96. [PMID: 32143662 PMCID: PMC7060642 DOI: 10.1186/s13018-020-1557-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/11/2019] [Accepted: 01/14/2020] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Gene polymorphism has an important influence on RETN gene expression level, and the increased level of resistin encoded in RETN will lead to metabolic disorder, especially lipid metabolism. Moreover, steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (steroid-induced ONFH) is closely related to lipid metabolism level, so this study is intended to explore the relationship of RETN polymorphisms with susceptibility to steroid-induced ONFH in the Chinese Han population. Methods In this case-control study, eight single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of RETN were genotyped by the Agena MassARRAY system in 199 steroid-induced ONFH patients and 200 healthy controls. The relationship between RETN polymorphisms and steroid-induced ONFH risk was assessed using genetic models and haplotype analyses. Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were obtained by logistic regression adjusted for age. Results We found significant differences in the distribution of HDL-C, TG/HDL-C, and LDL-C/HDL-C between the patients and the control group (p < 0.05). In allele model and genotype model analysis, rs34861192, rs3219175, rs3745368, and rs1477341 could reduce the risk of steroid-induced ONFH. Further stratified analysis showed that rs3745367 was related to the clinical stage of patients, and rs1477341 was significantly correlated with an increased TG level and a decreased TC/HDL-C level. The linkage analysis showed that two SNPs (rs34861192 and rs3219175) in RETN even significant linkage disequilibrium. Conclusions Our results provide the firstly evidence that RETN gene polymorphisms were associated with a reduced risk of steroid-induced ONFH in Chinese Han population.

Abstract
Background Obesity is a global health burden in the non-communicable diseases and much efforts have been implemented in the past decade in response to the rise of obesity prevalence among the Malaysian population. These include the development of the national policies, health programmes and research activities. The main aim of the scoping review was to identify obesity research pattern among adults in Malaysia in terms of the scopes, topics and the research designs. Methods The scoping review was conducted based on the framework by Arksey and O’Malley. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta Analysis (PRISMA) diagram was used as a guide to record the review process. Articles from year 2008 until 2017 on overweight and obesity among adults aged 18 years and above were retrieved based on the keywords using electronic databases (Embase/Ovid, Pubmed, Cochrane library and Google Scholar). Local journals, Nutrition Research in Malaysia Biblography (2011 and 2016), online local theses databases, virtual library databases were also included in the searches. Consultations with relevant key informants from the National Institutes of Health and local universities were also conducted. Search activities were managed using Endnote software and MS Excelsheet. Results The characteristics of the results were described based on the objectives of the review. A total of 2004 articles and reports were retrieved, and 188 articles related to obesity in Malaysia were included in the final review. Scopes and topics of obesity research based on the Nutrition Research Priorities in Malaysia (NRPM) for 11th Malaysia Plan were obesity prevalence, weight loss intervention, association of physical activities and dietary factors with obesity. The majority of obesity research among adults in Malaysia was cross sectional studies and only a small number of intervention studies, qualitative studies and systematic review were indentified. Research gaps were identified in order to make useful recommendations to the stakeholders. Conclusions In the past decade, there has been an emerging evidence on obesity research among adults in Malaysia. More obesity research needs to be conducted particularly on obesity intervention among specific gender, qualitative studies, economic cost and genetic factors of obesity. Electronic supplementary material The online version of this article (10.1186/s12905-018-0590-4) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent evidences have revealed that resistin is associated with the development of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The aim of this study was to analyze the association of resistin gene single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with RA susceptibility. METHODS In this study, we finally analyzed three resistin SNPs (rs1862513, rs3745368, and rs3745367) in 278 RA patients and 276 normal controls recruited from Chinese population using TaqMan SNP genotyping assays. RESULTS There were no significant differences for the distribution of allele and genotype frequencies of these three SNPs between RA patients and normal controls (all P > .05). The genotype effects of dominant, recessive models were also analyzed, and no significant association was detected (all P > .05). Haplotype analysis suggested that the frequency of haplotype GAA was notably lower in RA patients in comparison with normal controls (OR = 0.317, 95% CI: 0.125-0.807, P = .011). CONCLUSION In a ward, our results indicated that resistin gene polymorphisms might affect the genetic predisposition of RA in Chinese population.

Abstract
Lung cancer is one of the most common cancers and is associated with a poor survival rate in the Chinese Han population. Analysis of genetic variants could lead to improvements in prognosis following lung cancer treatment. Resistin (RETN) is an important mediator of metabolic diseases and tumor progression. In this study, we explored the effects of RETN single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on the susceptibility and clinicopathological characteristics of patients with lung cancer. Four RETN SNPs (rs7408174, rs1862513, rs3745367, and rs3219175) were analyzed using TaqMan SNP genotyping in 371 patients with lung cancer and 451 cancer-free controls. The results showed that the RETN SNP rs3219175 with AG or at least 1 A allele was associated with a higher risk of lung cancer than wild-type (GG) carriers. Moreover, the RETN SNP rs3219175 with AG or AG + AA alleles was associated with a higher risk of distant metastasis than that in patients carrying GG alleles. We also used genotype-tissue expression datasets to compare the correlation of the RETN SNP rs3219175 in lung tissue and whole blood. In conclusion, our study demonstrated, for the first time, that RETN polymorphisms were correlated with lung cancer progression in the Chinese Han population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adipose tissue is an important endocrine organ that secretes a number of adipokines, like Resistin (RETN); it's an adipocytes-secreted cytokine and has been proposed as a link between obesity and diabetes. Many resistin gene polymorphisms were described and their implication in obesity was controversial. This study was to investigate the prevalence of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in RETN gene 420C/G; 44G/A; 62G/A; 394C/G and 299 G/A and their association with Resistin level and obesity in Tunisian volunteers. METHODS We recruited 169 nonobese (mean age=42.16-14.26 years; mean body mass index [BMI]=24.51-3.69 kg/m2 ) and 160 obese (mean age=47.86-11.17 years; mean BMI=36-4.78 kg/m2 ). Genotyping was performed using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. Anthropometric parameters, lipid levels, Glycemia and insulinemia were measured, BMI was calculated and insulinresistance was evaluated with the homeostasis model assessment insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) and resistin level was measured by ELISA. Statistical analyses were performed by SPSS19.0. RESULTS After adjustment for confounding parameters; the Odds Ratio (OR) of obesity associated with mutated genotypes at 420C/G compared with normal genotype was as: OR=2.17; 95% CI [1.28-3.68], P=.004. The serum Resistin levels present no significant association with all RETN polymorphisms and it was significantly associated with BMI (P=.047). In our haplotype analysis, one haplotype seems to be protective and one other seems to be the highest risk to obesity. CONCLUSION The 420 C/G Polymorphism were associated with obesity and Leptin concentration in our population.

Abstract
Recent research on genome-wide associations has implicated that the serum resistin level and its gene polymorphism are associated with cerebral infarction (CI) morbidity and prognosis, and could thereby regulate CI. This study aimed to investigate the association between the resistin single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and the susceptibility to CI in the Chinese Han population. A total of 550 CI patients and 313 healthy controls were genotyped. Nine SNPs of the resistin gene previously shown were sequenced and assessed for an association with CI. The numbers of GG genotype carriers of rs3219175 and rs3486119 in the CI group were significantly higher than those in the control group among the middle-aged group (aged 45-65), at 76% vs 67.9% (P=0.025) and 75.5% vs 67.9% (P=0.031). rs3219175 and rs34861192 were associated with CI in the dominant and superdominant models according to the genetic model analysis (P<0.05). Meanwhile, there was strong linkage disequilibrium among the rs34124816, rs3219175, rs34861192, rs1862513, rs3745367, 180C/G and rs3745369 sites. In a haplotype analysis, the occurrence rate of the haplotype AGGCAGC was 1.97 times (P<0.05) higher in the patient group than in the control group. In addition, the numbers of GG genotype carriers of rs3219175 and rs3486119 in the middle-aged male CI patients and the middle-aged small artery occlusion (SAO) CI patients were higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). In the Chinese Han middle-aged population, the GG gene type carriers of the resistin gene sites rs3219175 and rs34861192 had a high risk for CI onset, especially in middle-aged male patients and SAO CI in all middle-aged patients.

Abstract
Obesity is an emerging health problem in purebred dogs. Due to their crucial role in energy homeostasis control, genes encoding adipokines are considered candidate genes, and their variants may be associated with predisposition to obesity. Searching for polymorphism was carried out in three adipokine genes (TNF, RETN and IL6). The study was performed on 260 dogs, including lean (n = 109), overweight (n = 88) and obese (n = 63) dogs. The largest cohort was represented by Labrador Retrievers (n = 136). Altogether, 24 novel polymorphisms were identified: 12 in TNF (including one missense SNP), eight in RETN (including one missense SNP) and four in IL6. Distributions of five common SNPs (two in TNF, two in RETN and one in IL6) were further analyzed with regard to body condition score. Two SNPs in the non-coding parts of TNF (c.-40A>C and c.233+14G>A) were associated with obesity in Labrador dogs. The obtained results showed that the studied adipokine genes are highly polymorphic and two polymorphisms in the TNF gene may be considered as markers predisposing Labrador dogs to obesity.

Epigenome-wide association study suggests that SNPs in the promoter region of RETN influence plasma resistin level via effects on DNA methylation at neighbouring sites. Diabetologia 2015; 58:2781-90. [PMID: 26404063 DOI: 10.1007/s00125-015-3763-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2015] [Accepted: 08/28/2015] [Indexed: 10/23/2022]
Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS To investigate epigenetic regulation of the plasma concentration of resistin, we performed an epigenome-wide association study for this variable and DNA methylation (DNAm) in an elderly Japanese cohort and then assessed the relation of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with the plasma resistin concentration to DNAm level at identified sites. METHODS The association of plasma resistin level with DNAm status was examined in 191 nondiabetic elderly men with the Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip array. The association between DNAm status at specific sites in the flanking region of the resistin gene (RETN) and RETN mRNA abundance was then evaluated with a public data set for 1202 monocyte samples from a multi-ethnic cohort. Finally, the association of DNAm status and SNPs in the promoter region of RETN was assessed in two cohorts comprising a total of 478 Japanese individuals. RESULTS DNAm status at cg02346997 located in the RETN promoter region showed a negative genome-wide significant association with the plasma resistin level (p = 6.02 × 10(-10)). Four DNAm sites in the RETN promoter region including cg02346997 (p = 4.23 × 10(-70)) showed a negative genome-wide significant association with RETN mRNA abundance in monocytes. Furthermore, the number of minor alleles of the RETN promoter SNPs rs34861192 and rs3219175 was negatively associated with DNAm level at cg02346997 (p = 4.43 × 10(-17)). CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION Our results suggest that RETN promoter SNPs might influence the circulating resistin level through an effect on DNAm at cg02346997 and on RETN mRNA abundance in monocytes.
