Core Tip |
To investigate the direct effect of hepatitis C virus (HCV) on insulin resistance we analyzed adipokines and homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) in selected chronic hepatitis C patients without metabolic disorders. In this group of patients we confirmed higher HOMA-IR values compared to healthy subjects. We speculated that no relationship between adipokines and HOMA-IR values may indicate that HCV can induce insulin resistance itself, regardless of metabolic disorders. This is the first study to determine the impact of a wide spectrum of adipokines and HOMA-IR index on histopathological changes in liver biopsy specimens and hepatic expression of suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 mRNA. |
