Soluble CD14 and CD14 Variants Other Inflammatory Markers and Glucose Dysregulation in Older Adults: The Cardiovascular Health Study

摘要

Experimental studies have implicated soluble (s)CD14, an effector of lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammation, in insulin resistance, but its role in human metabolic endotoxemia has not been studied. We evaluated sCD14 in relation to dysglycemia in older adults and how this compares to other markers of inflammation.
