HERNANDEZ-DIAZ, Adrián et al. Omentin: Role in insulin resistance, inflammation and cardiovascular protection. Arch. Cardiol. Méx. [online]. 2016, vol.86, n.3, pp.233-243. ISSN 1665-1731. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.acmx.2015.09.010.
The omentin is an adipokine, which role is due to the capacity of regulate metabolic (insulin sensitivity) and anti-inflammatory activities, thus conferring vascular protection during obesity and diabetes mellitus type 2. By this, it is important to know the mechanisms by which omentin confers cardiovascular protection, with the purpose of establish omentin a possible therapeutic target or molecule on this scenario.
