Irisin is a cytokine involved in many metabolic pathways occurring, among others, in muscles, adipose tissue and liver. Thus, fluctuations in irisin levels are suggested to be related to metabolic diseases. Therefore, the purpose of our study was to evaluate whether irisin may be associated with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). A total of 138 patients (70/68 male/female, mean age 65.61 ± 10.44 years) were enrolled in the study. The patients were assigned to the NAFLD group (n = 72, including 46 patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM]) and the group without NAFLD (n = 66, 31 patients with T2DM). NAFLD was diagnosed based on ultrasound examination, Hepatic Steatosis Index (HSI) and Fatty Liver Index. Baseline anthropometric, blood pressure and biochemical parameters were collected. The serum irisin level was determined using an ELISA test. We observed that NAFLD was associated with an increased concentration of irisin. Moreover, Spearman correlations and linear regression analysis revealed that irisin level correlates with some anthropometric and biochemical parameters such as body mass index, glycated hemoglobin, aspartic aminotransferase, creatinine and urea. Logistic regression analysis depicted that odds for NAFLD increase 1.17 times for each 1 μg/mL rise of irisin concentration. Finally, ROC analysis showed that the concentration of irisin possesses a discriminate capacity for NAFLD and optimal cut points concentration could be designed. The risk of NAFLD in the subgroup with irisin concentration above 3.235 μg/mL was 4.57 times higher than in patients with the lower concentration of irisin. To conclude, the obtained results suggest that irisin concentration is associated with some anthropometric and biochemical parameters and should be further investigated toward its usage as a diagnostic biomarker of NAFLD.
