Mediation role of body fat distribution (FD) on the relationship between CAV1 rs3807992 polymorphism and metabolic syndrome in overweight and obese women.
TL;DR: Although CAV-1 rs3807992 is linked to visceral fat in this study, the influence of this polymorphism on MetS is not via total fat, and higher visceral adipose tissue may affect the relationship between CAv-1 and MetS.
MIF Expression in Induced Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells by Vitamin D3 and its Potential Correlation with Resting Metabolic Rate in Obesity
TL;DR: It is concluded that MIF expression, which is in turn influenced by vitamin D3, has a role in the hyperactive immune profile and the pro-inflammatory state observed in obese individuals which is suggested to have a causal relationship with obesity.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the associations between different protein sources and the odds of diabetic nephropathy (DN) developing in Iranian women with existing type 2 diabetes, and found that greater adherence to the Mediterranean-based dietary protein sources (MDPS) pattern was associated with lower odds of developing DN (OR 0.03; 95% CI: 0.00, 0.10).
Are caveolin-1 minor alleles more likely to be risk alleles in insulin resistance mechanisms in metabolic diseases?
TL;DR: In this article, the association between CAV1 and insulin signaling in modifying dyslipidemia and fat composition in overweight and obese women with a prevalent variant in the CAV 1 gene was examined.
