Abstract

Background: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome is a common sleep-related breathing disorder characterized by recurrent upper airway collapse during sleep and is closely associated with metabolic dysregulation, including insulin resistance, adipose tissue dysfunction, and impaired lipid metabolism. Perilipin-2 (PLIN-2), a lipid droplet-associated protein involved in triglyceride storage and regulation of lipolysis, may reflect alterations in lipid homeostasis associated with OSA. Objective: T...
