Summary

Irisin is a myokine induced by exercise, that converts white fat tissue to brown fat tissue, thereby increases thermogenesis and energy expenditure. The aim of this study is to determine the relationships between serum irisin levels and glucose and lipid parameters in obese children with and without non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). A total of 60 pubertal obese children (age range: 11-18 years) will be included in the study. 30 of these patients will be had NAFLD. The control group consisted of 28 healthy children who will be similar in age and sex to the obese group.
