Abstract
⺠A cross-sectional study was carried out with 60 pregnant women and a control group. ⺠Serum concentrations of biochemistries, chemerin, and adiponectin were measured. ⺠Chemerin levels did not vary in the early follicular and midluteal phases. ⺠Chemerin rose significantly and is negatively associated with adiponectin levels. ⺠Further study needed to investigate the use of chemerin as a clinical biomarker.
