Involvement of the leptin-adiponectin axis in inflammation and oxidative stress in the metabolic syndrome

Abstract The aim of the present work was to study whether the leptin-adiponectin axis may have a pathophysiological role in the increased systemic inflammation and oxidative stress observed in patients with the metabolic syndrome (MS). Leptin, adiponectin, and markers of inflammation and oxidative s...
