1 METHODS: Serum RBP4 was measured in 763 individuals with normal glucose regulation, 508 with impaired glucose regulation and 524 newly diagnosed diabetic patients. Glucose retinol binding protein 4 Homo sapiens
2 RESULTS: Serum RBP4 concentrations were significantly higher in participants with isolated impaired fasting glucose, isolated impaired glucose tolerance, combined impaired fasting glucose/impaired glucose tolerance and diabetes than in those with normal glucose regulation, whereas serum RBP4 levels were not different in the four groups with dysregulation of glucose metabolism. Glucose retinol binding protein 4 Homo sapiens
