C1q/TNF-related protein 9 (CTRP9) is a paralogue of adiponectin with known favorable
effects on lipid and glucose metabolism. A potential role of CTRP9 for regulation of …

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common endocrine diseases in
reproductive-aged women, and it affects numerous women worldwide. This study aimed to …

Altered production of adipokines is suggested to play a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of
polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). C1q/TNF-related proteins (CTRPs) play diverse roles …

Ovarian aging is associated with depletion of the ovarian follicle reserve, which is the key
determinant of fertility potential in females. In this study, we found that the small, secreted …

The biological functions of microRNAs (miRNAs) have been studied in a number of
eukaryotic species. Recent studies on vertebrate animals have demonstrated critical roles of …

Background: Obesity, a medical condition with impaired adipokine secretion and function,
has a detrimental effect on insulin and glucose metabolism. CTRP3 and CTRP9 are …

Background Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is associated with obesity, diabetes, and
insulin resistance. The circulating C1Q/TNF-related proteins (CTRP-2, CTRP-9) and growth …

Aim. C1q/tumor necrosis factor‐related protein‐9 (CTRP9), a paralog of adiponectin, is
expressed in adipose tissue. CTRP9 exerts protective effects against obesity and …

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a common poignant endocrine disorder affecting
women, posing a close association with metabolic syndrome and obesity. Existing literature …

C1q/tumor necrosis factor-related protein 9 (CTRP9) is a newly discovered adipokine that is
the closest paralog of adiponectin. Proteolytic cleavage of CTRP9 leads to the release of the …
