Nesfatin-1-related hypertriglyceridemia іn hypertensive obese patients

Abstract

Triglycerides (TG) are known to be an independent risk factor of cardiovascular pathology. One of the metabolically active substances, nesfatin-1, was recently found as a peptide secreted by adipose tissue, hypothalamus and some internal organs. Nesfatin-1 seems to have multisystem action and is considered to be an integrating link between different components of cardiometabolic risk.
