    Glossary Resistin

    hormone from fat tissue linked to inflammation and insulin resistance

    Resistin is a hormone produced by adipose (fat) tissue that plays a role in inflammation and insulin resistance. In simple terms, it can contribute to making it harder for the body to use insulin effectively, which is a key factor in conditions like type 2 diabetes.
