There is increasing evidence of the coupling of immune status to the metabolic system. The communication between the state of systemic and cellular energy balance to immune compartment is mediated via a complex array of cytokines, hormones and neuropeptides. Ghrelin, a recently described orexigenic peptide hormone, is predominantly produced by the stomach and functions as a positive regulator of the...
Elevated levels of the inflammatory cytokine IL-6 are associated with the development of disability, frailty, and mortality in older adults. These outcomes are likely mediated through inflammatory activity that alters hormones, skeletal muscle, and the immune system. Polymorphic variants in the IL-6 gene influence IL-6 expression. We hypothesized that IL-6 alleles associate with increased serum of...
