TLQP-21 neuropeptide, derived from the VGF, is considered to promote lipolysis by the beta-adrenergic pathway through targeting the C3aR1 receptor located in the adipocyte membrane. In this study, we aimed to measure the expression levels of the VGF and C3aR1 genes in the adipose tissue of obese subjects and individuals with normal weight determined based on body mass index (BMI), and to reveal the correlation of these levels with obesity. VGF and C3aR1 gene expression levels were measured using Real Time Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT PCR) in the visceral adipose tissue (VAT) samples of 52 obese patients (BMI ≥ 35 kg/m2) and 21 non-obese controls (BMI = 18.5-24.9 kg/m2). The results were statistically analyzed. The VGF expression was lower and the C3aR1 gene expression was higher in obese patients compared to the non-obese control group (p < 0.05). In obese patients, there was a statistically significant positive correlation of 85.6% between VGF and C3aR1, in which when one level increased, the other also increased (p < 0.05, r = 0.856). The findings show that the VGF may be significantly associated with obesity and is very important since it is the first to measure the level of VGF gene expression in human adipose tissue. This research provides new evidence of a link between obesity and VGF/C3aR1 and in the future may help design strategies to combat obesity."xsd:string |
