The Relation of Retinol-Binding Protein 4 ( RBP4 ) with Insulin Resistance in Hemodialysis Patients

Abstract
Background: Insulin resistance (IR) is one of the important causes of abnormal glucose homeostasis in CKD even in the absence of overt diabetes mellitus. Retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) is a lipocalin superfamily molecule that is synthesized primarily by hepatocytes and adipocytes. CKD may contribute to the increased survival and retention of RBP4 in the circulation. RBP has recently been propose...
