Introduction: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between serum adropin levels and markers of renal function in active and inactive young people.
Methods: The present research was conducted using a correlational method.Fifty young men and women with an average age of 28.22 ± 2.27 years, height 170 ± 8 cm, and body mass index 24.72 ± 4.88 kg/m² participated in the present study. Subjects were divided into active and inactive groups based on Beck's questionnaire, and 3 cc of blood was taken from their brachial vein to measure levels of adropin, urea, uric acid, creatinine, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), albumin, and total serum protein. The normality of the data was determined through the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, and the independent t-test was used to compare the mean of the data, and the Pearson correlation coefficient was used to determine the correlation.
Results: Although a strong, positive (r = 0.78 +) and significant (p < 0.05) correlation was observed between adropin and physical activity, the renal function markers did not show a significant difference between the two active and inactive groups. No significant correlation was observed between renal function markers and adropin levels and between renal function markers and physical activity.
Conclusions: With increasing physical activity, the amount of adropin increases, but this increase does not change the levels of renal function markers in healthy people. Therefore, it seems that there is no relationship between adropin levels and renal function markers in healthy young people.
