Abstract

Objective: Irisin, a newly discovered myokine, increases thermogenesis and energy consumption, especially after exercise. It has also been reported to stimulate the transformation of white fat cells into brown fat cells. Thus, it causes weight loss and increases the sensitivity to insulin. Nicotine affects the energy metabolism of the body through several mechanisms. Cigarette smokers are widely known to show decreased weight gain and increased weight loss. Since irisin and smoking/nicotine have similar effects on energy metabolism, this study proposed to determine the serum irisin levels in smokers. Material and Methods: Thirty-one healthy smokers aged 17-24 years and 31 agematched healthy non-smokers were included in this study. Serum irisin levels were determined using ELISA. Results: The smokers had been smoking for an average of 31±19 (2-84) months and smoked an average of 13.7±0.4 (5-25) cigarettes daily. The smokers had higher height and body weight and levels of serum creatinine and triglyceride and lower levels of HDL-C than non-smokers (p0.05). The serum irisin level was correlated only with serum creatinine level in the entire group (r=-0.26, p0.05). Conclusion: Serum irisin level in cigarette smokers is not different to that of non-smokers. It is not related to the duration and amount of cigarette smoking. Further prospective dose and time-controlled studies are needed to investigate whether similar effects of smoking/nicotine exposure on energy metabolism are related to irisin metabolism.

Özet

Amaç: İrisin, özellikle egzersizden sonra termogenezisi ve enerji harcanmasını artıran yeni tanımlanmış bir miyokindir. Aynı zamanda beyaz yağ dokusu hücrelerine, kahverengi yağ dokusu hücresi özellikleri kazandırdığı rapor edilmiştir. Böylece kilo kaybına neden olur ve insülin duyarlılığının artışına neden olur. Nikotin, pek çok değişik mekanizma ile vücut enerji metabolizmasını etkilemektedir. Sigara içenlerde kilo alımının azaldığı ve kilo kaybının arttığı yaygın olarak bilinmektedir. İrisin ve sigara içiminin/nikotinin enerji metabolizmasında benzer etkileri olduğu görüldüğü için bu çalışmada sigara içenlerde serum irisin düzeylerinin tayini planlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Bu çalışmaya, yaşları 17-24 yıl arasında değişen 31 sağlıklı, sigara içen birey ile yaş açısından benzer 31 sağlıklı, sigara içmeyen birey dâhil edildi. Serum irisin düzeyleri ELISA yöntemi ile tayin edildi. Bulgular: Sigara içenlerde sigara içimi süresi ortalama 31±19 (2-84) ay ve içilen sigara adedi ortalama 13,7±0,4 (5-25) idi. Sigara içen bireylerin boy uzunluğu, vücut ağırlığı, serum kreatinin, trigliserid düzeyleri sigara içmeyenlerden yüksek iken, HDLK düzeyleri daha düşük idi (p0,05). Serum irisin düzeyleri, sadece tüm çalışma grubunda serum kreatinin düzeyleri ile korele idi (r=- 0,26, p0,05). Sonuç: Sigara içenlerde serum irisin düzeyleri, sigara içmeyenlerden farklı değildir. Serum irisin düzeyleri, sigara içiminin süresi ve miktarıyla ilişkili değildir. Sigara içiminin enerji metabolizmasındaki benzer etkilerinin, irisin metabolizmasıyla ilişkili olup olmadığı ileriye dönük, doz ve zaman kontrollü çalışmalarla araştırılmalıdır.
