N2  - Background:  Adipose tissue is an endocrine organ that secretes a large number of proteins under  normal and pathophysiological conditions. Resistin, a new adipocyte hormone  described as low-molecular weight, adipokine as member of a cysteine-rich secretory  protein family. It was found to be predominantly expressed in adipocytes, to  mediate insulin resistance and to show increased circulating levels in obesity (Li et al,  2009). Conclusions: Resistin was found to be positively correlated with presence of type 2  DM and with higher admission capillary blood glucose and also with the long term  Diabetic control as presented by HBA1C. In the same time, Resistin was positively  correlated with presence of NON-STEMI specially in diabetic patients and with the  level of cardiac enzymes. This confirms the diagnostic and prognostic role of Resistin  as inflammatory marker and adipokine
