Özet

Aim: Metabolic changes in bipolar disorder appear to be among the cluster of disturbances that have insulin resistance as a common etiologic factor. Several recently discovered adipokines such as resistin and visfatin play a role in the pathogenesis of insulin resistance. In this study we aimed to evaluate the association between serum resistin levels and metabolic changes in bipolar disorder. Method: Sixty euthymic bipolar I disorder patients, of 29 on mood stabilizer (MS) (lithium, valproic acid, carbamazepine, and lamotrigine) treatment and of 31 on atypical antipsychotic (AA) (risperidone, quetiapine and olanzapine) treatment for at least 3 months, were enrolled. The control group consisted of 27 healthy members who have had similar distributions of age, sex, and BMI with the patients. Resistin, glucose, triglycerides, and high density lipoprotein (HDL) levels were measured in all groups. Results: Resistin levels were found to be significantly high in bipolar patients than that in the controls. However, when metabolic parameters were considered resistin levels were not significantly different between the patient and control groups (p>0.05). Conclusion: Despite serum resistin levels were high in bipolar patients, we did not find any association between metabolic disturbances and treatment modalities.
