This document summarizes the current understanding of adipokines and their role in insulin resistance. It begins by describing adipose tissue as an endocrine organ that secretes adipokines, which can regulate fat mass and insulin resistance. It then discusses several specific adipokines (adiponectin, omentin, visfatin, leptin, resistin, lipocalin-2, retinol binding protein-4, chemerin, TNF-α, IL-6) and how each contributes to insulin resistance through different mechanisms like decreasing insulin receptor activity or modulating glucose transport. Overall, dysfunctional adipose tissue secretion of altered adipokine levels is associated with insulin resistance and related chronic diseases.
This PowerPoint presentation shares vital information on leptin and exactly what comprises the foundation for the Venus Factor system. Leptin is a powerful enzyme for weight loss and because of this, proper leptin resistance management has provided great success to women wanting to burn fat.

Diabetes mellitus (DM):- It is a metabolicdisorder characterized by hyperglycaemia, (fasting plasma glucose ≥ 126 mg/dl and/or ≥ 200 mg/dl 2 hours after 75 g oral glucose),glycosuria, hyperlipidaemia, negative nitrogen balance and sometimes ketonaemia.
Diabetes mellitus, one of the major public health problems worldwide, is a metabolic disorder of multiple etiologies distinguished by a failure of glucose homeostasis with disturbances of carbohydrate, fat and protein metabolism as a result of defects in insulin secretion and/or insulin action.
According to International Diabetes Federation (IDF) report, elevated blood glucose is the third uppermost risk factor for premature mortality, following high blood pressure and tobacco use globally
Cardiovascular diseases, neuropathy, nephropathy, and retinopathy are among the major risks that are associated with diabetes.These chronic complications may lead to hardening and narrowing of arteries (atherosclerosis) that could advance to stroke, coronary heart disease, and other blood vessel diseases, nerve damage, kidney failure, and blindness with time
Two major types of diabetes mellitus are
1. Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) / juvenile onset diabetes mellitus
2. Noninsulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) / maturity onset diabetes mellitus
Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) / juvenile onset diabetes mellitus
There is β cell destruction in pancreatic islets; majority of cases are autoimmune (type 1A) antibodies that destroy β cells are detectable in blood, but some are idiopathic (type 1B)-no βcell antibody is found.
2.Noninsulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) / maturity onset diabetes mellitus
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is the most prevalent metabolic disease worldwide.
There is no loss or moderate reduction in β cell mass: insulin in circulation is low. normal or even high. no anti-β -cell antibody is demonstrable: has a high degree of genetic predisposition: generally has a late onset (past middle age). Over 90% cases of diabetes are type 2 DM
Abnormality in gluco-receptor of β cells so that they respond at higher glucose concentration or relative β cell deficiency. In either way. insulin secretion is impaired: may progress to β cells failure.
Reduced sensitivity of peripheral tissues to insulin: reduction in number of insulin receptors, “down regulation” of insulin receptors.
Insulin history:
Insulin was discovered in 1921 by Banting and Best who demonstrated the hypoglycaemic action of an extract of pancreas prepared after degeneration of the exocrine part due to ligation of pancreatic duct.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

From his breakout role as Thomas Magnum in Magnum P.I. to his current portrayal of Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods. Selleck's career has spanned over 50 years. But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.
Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine.

This chronic inflammation insulin resistance by
modulating various metabolic pathways
10. 1- Adiponectin
• Adiponectin consists of 244 amino acids and is
located on chromosome 3q27 , a region
associated with type 2 diabetes and CVD .
• In healthy individuals, circulating adiponectin is
normally between 5–30 u g/ml and is lower in
individuals with adiposity, insulin resistance and
type 2 diabetes
• Numerous epidemiological studies suggest that
adiponectin deficiency is associated with
coronary artery disease and hypertension.
11. Hypoadiponectinemia - an
additional CVD risk factor in T2D
Hypoadiponectinemia is associated with endothelial dysfunction,
greater carotid intima-media thickness(IMT), and coronary artery
disease
In vascular levels, actions of the adiponectin comprise reduction
in expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1),
vascular cell adhesion molecule1(VCAM-1) and E-selectin
Inhibit the transformation of macrophages into foam cells and
the proliferation and migration of smooth muscle cells which have
a protective effect on atherosclerosis
12. • Thus, low serum adiponectin level is now considered a
CVD risk factor, type 2 diabetic patients with low
concentrations of this protein would have increased risk of
developing premature arteriosclerosis.
• In other words, lower levels of serum adiponectin is an
additional CVD risk factor for the patients with type 2
diabetes
13.
14. 2- Omentin
Circulating omentin levels are decreased in :
1- Obesity,
2- Metabolic syndrome,
3- Type 2 diabetes (T2D)
4- Patients with coronary artery
5- Established carotid atherosclerosis
Inversely correlated with insulin resistance,

Visfatin is an inflammatory mediator, based on its
localization in macrophages within atherosclerotic
lesion and its ability to induce matrix
metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 in monocytes
Elevated in
1- Obesity,
2- Insulin resistance,
3- Type 2 diabetes mellitus,
4- Pro-inflammatory states .
Visfatin is involved in endothelial dysfunction (ED),
which causes progression of atherosclerosis and
therefore plays an important role in different forms of
cardiovascular diseases.
16. 4- Leptin
Leptin has emerged as a major inflammatory agent
responsible for vascular inflammation, increased oxidative
stress, endothelial dysfunction, and proliferation of vascular
smooth muscle cells (VSMC), resulting in intimate
hyperplasia.
Patients with T2DM may be more risky for vascular
inflammation mediated by leptin/adiponectin axis and
subsequent damage leading to microvascular
complications
17. 5-Resistin
• Resistin is a member of a cysteine-rich protein termed as
resistin like molecule (RELM) and circulates as a hexamer
and trimer.
• Hexameric form of this adipokine is more abundant, while
trimeric form induces severe insulin resistance
• The mechanism by which resistin causes the insulin
resistance includes the activation of suppressor of cytokine
signalling-3 (SOCS-3), which attenuates insulin-arbitrate
signalling in adipocytes
• In association with the toll-like receptor (TLR- 4), resistin
stimulates insulin resistance in different cells.

19. 6- Lipocalin-2 (Lcn2)
Neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin (NGAL)
• Lcn2 is highly expressed in adipocytes, liver, kidney and on
macrophages and regulates apoptosis and innate immunity
• The primary mechanism underlines the effect of Lcn2 on
insulin resistance include the modulation of 12-
lipoxygenase activity and TNF-á levels in adipose tissue
• Study on LCN2 showed increased hepatic
gluconeogenesis, debilitate lipid metabolism, impaired
oxidation capacity of mitochondria, elevated inflammation
favouring dyslipidemia due to diet-induced obesity, fatty
liver disorders and insulin resistance.
• Overexpression of this adipokine in adipose tissue has
been reported for elevated fat mass, glucose intolerance
and insulin resistance only in females via mitochondrial

21. 7- Retinol Binding Protein-4 (RBP-4)
Higher expression of this adipokine in the adipocyte is
inversely associated with the GLUT-4 expression in the
adipocyte
Thus, decreased GLUT-4 in adipocytes promotes higher
expression of RBP-4, which inhibits insulin-mediated
insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) phosphorylation that
can contribute to insulin resistance
During obesity, RBP-4 is preferentially produced by
visceral fat depot than subcutaneous fat depot, suggesting
the role of intra-abdominal adipose tissue in insulin
resistance .

Chemerin is a pro-inflammatory adipokine predominantly
produced by white adipose tissue (WAT) that regulates the
immune system (adaptive and innate), adipogenesis and
metabolic homeostasis
Overexpression of chemerin in adipose tissue causes
insulin resistance in human skeletal muscles by modulating

28. 10- IL-6
Interleukin-6 is a pro-inflammatory cytokine
secreted by many different cell types and tissues,
including adipose tissue, and plays a significant
role in the immune response.
This adipocytokine contributes to low-grade
chronic inflammatory state responsible for adipose
tissue dysfunction .
The mechanism of action by which this cytokine
imparts its role in insulin resistance involves
inhibitory effects on the gene transcription of
PPAR gamma, GLUT-4 and IRS-1.

Adipose tissue dysfunction
31. CONCLUSION
Dysfunctional adipose tissue secretes altered levels
of adipokines that are associated with many health
problems, including insulin resistance.
Recent findings exhibit the role of adipokine
induced insulin resistance as a major risk factor for
the development of chronic diseases like
neurodegenerative diseases, non-alcoholic fatty
liver disease, chronic kidney diseases,
cardiovascular diseases etc.
However, determining the role of adipokines in the
aetiology of insulin resistance may provide new
opportunities for developing novel therapeutics for
obesity arbitrates insulin resistance.
Adipocytes are the major energy storage sites in the body, and they also have critical endocrine functions. There are two general classes of adipocytes; white adipocytes - which store energy as a single large lipid droplet and have important endocrine functions, and brown adipocytes - which store energy in multiple small lipid droplets but specifically for use as fuel to generate body heat (i.e. thermogenesis). Heat production by brown adipocytes is made possible by their unique expression of mitochondrial localized uncoupling protein 1 (Ucp1). However, these classifications are oversimplified because some white adipocytes can adopt brown adipocyte characteristics (termed brite or beige adipocytes) and vice versa depending on the temperature and diet. Adipose tissues are classified as brown adipose tissue (BAT) and white adipose tissue (WAT), originated from mesoderm and the mesenchymal stem cells during embryogenesis. BAT is rich in mitochondria; hence appear brown and predominantly involved in thermogenesis (heat production) via uncoupling proteins . Conversely, WAT is organ-specific and is further divided into visceral (mesenteric, retroperitoneal, omental and pericardial) and subcutaneous (beneath the skin) adipose depots; thus obesity-related consequences are primarily regulated by WAT
Monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP1) is a potent adipokine.
The meaning of PARACRINE is of, relating to, promoted by, or being a substance secreted by a cell and acting on adjacent cells , Autocrine signaling is a form of cell communication in which a signal is released by a cell and then acts on that SAME cell, causing some alteration or effect.
Resistin and human macrophages. Human resistin participates in inflammation, oxidative stress, and insulin resistance leading to T2DM. Deciphering the molecular crosstalk among them still needs further investigation.

The glucose transporter GLUT4 mediates insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in adipocytes and muscle by rapidly moving from intracellular storage sites to the plasma membrane. In insulin-resistant states such as obesity and type 2 diabetes, GLUT4 expression is decreased in adipose tissue but preserved in muscle.
Effect of chemerin on the metabolic status of different organs (inconclusive results indicated by reverse arrows). Data published so far mostly agree that chemerin impairs skeletal muscle insulin response. This was not observed in the liver, here gluconeogenesis was enhanced in chemerin deficient mice. The function of chemerin on blood pressure was modified by gender. Chemerin further stimulated angiogenesis and vascular inflammation. Adipose tissue weight was not changed by chemerin. This adipokine may even improve insulin response of fat tissue although the number of adipose tissue resident macrophages was increased. Stimulatory and inhibitory effects of chemerin on glucose-induced release of insulin by pancreatic beta-cells was reported. Inconclusive findings may be partly explained by the different models studied.
TNF-α plays a critical role in the development of insulin resistance in such a way that it reduces the expression of glucose transporter type 4 (GLUT4) which is an insulin-regulated glucose transporter and mainly located in adipocytes, skeletal, and cardiac muscles [Huang and Czech, 2007; Guilherme et al., 2008; Olson, 2012]. Serine phosphorylation of insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) induced by the activation of TNF-α, also works as an inhibitor of insulin receptor and down streams the signaling of phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase activation [Fasshauer and Paschke, 2003].
n brief, the hypothetical pathomechanism starts with the binding of TNF-α to the TNF-α receptor on hTeno which initiates the phosphorylation of TNF receptor-associated factor 2 (TRAF2) and subsequently promotes activation of both c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway and IκB kinase (IKK). In particular, JNK and IKKs are both serine/threonine-specific protein kinase that catalyzes the phosphorylation of serine or threonine residues on target proteins. Activation of JNK is proposed to trigger serine phosphorylation of insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) instead of tyrosine phosphorylation, thus diminished the downstream pathways, i.e.: inhibits the phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3K) pathway and prohibits the translocation of GLUT4 intracellular vesicles to the transmembrane region, and eventually no glucose uptake by GLUT4. The glucose uptake in the cells is barely shuttled by GLUT1 via passive diffusion.
