AI Article Synopsis
- * SIRT1, a protein involved in cellular regulation, may influence the production of growth hormones like GH and IGF-1, and lower levels of SIRT1 are connected to short stature.
- * Visfatin, which is related to fat tissue, decreases in individuals with short stature potentially due to lower adipose tissue, impacting growth and development outcomes.
Article Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) is mainly secreted by the liver. It is a factor that is not fully understood in relation to growth. Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) is a deacetylase protein. It is thought that may have an effect on the release and function of GH and IGF-1. Visfatin is synthesized from adipose tissue as primary. It may be prognostic marker associated with growth factors. As a result of our work, FGF21 is not associated with short stature but levels of SIRT1 and visfatin are associated with short stature. The decrease in visfatin value in the short-stature group is thought to be due to an insufficient amount of adipose tissue, which is important for growth and development. SIRT1 might decrease GH effect by increasing STAT5 deacetylation in the liver and we think that the result of this reduction of SIRT1 would negatively impact IGF-1 and IGFBP-3 production.
