| Core Tip |
Omentin-1 is an adipokine well described for its anti-inflammatory and insulin-sensitizing functions. Aim of this study was to identify the effect of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and liver cirrhosis on serum omentin-1 levels. This study showed that circulating omentin-1 levels of HCV infected patients and non-infected healthy controls were similar. Accordingly, serum omentin-1 levels did not change upon effective elimination of the virus by direct acting antiviral therapy. Serum omentin-1 was not associated with diabetes or C-reactive protein in the HCV cohort. Patients with liver cirrhosis had increased serum omentin-1 levels before treatment and at sustained virological response 12 in comparison to HCV patients without liver cirrhosis. This analysis shows that increased serum omentin-1 levels of chronic HCV patients with liver cirrhosis persists after viral elimination. Serum omentin-1 has no role in the favourable metabolic outcomes of HCV eradication. |
