The Department of Life Sciences discussed a master’s thesis entitled “Evaluation of Spexin and Nesfatin-1 levels and a number of physiological indicators associated with metabolic disorders in obese men in the city of Kirkuk.”
The study presented by Zainab Pasha aimed to evaluate the levels of spexin and nesfatin-1 in obese men in Kirkuk and their relationship to the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. The study included 60 obese patients and 30 healthy people.
The results showed lower levels of spexin, nesfatin-1, and HDL-C in people with obesity, compared to higher indicators of insulin resistance, blood sugar, liver and kidney function, and blood lipids.
Spexin and nesfatin-1 are important biomarkers for predicting metabolic disorders and the risk of developing type 2 diabetes in people with obesity.
