ObjectiveIrisin has been shown to turn white adipocytes into brown-like adipocytes, which is emerging as an appealing therapeutic target for obesity. The objective of the study was to determine whether circulating irisin levels are related to endothelial dysfunction in obese subjects.DesignA total of 41 nonhypertensive, nondiabetic obese subjects and 40 age- and sex-matched lean healthy control were involved in this study. Clinical characteristics, blood biochemistry, circulating irisin and adiponectin of the subjects were measured. Endothelium-dependent vasodilation (EDV) and endothelial-independent vasodilation (EIV) were determined using high-resolution ultrasound.ResultsCirculating irisin and adiponectin were significantly lower in obese subjects compared with lean healthy control (P
