Adiponectin and resistin, members of the adipokine family, are multi-task hormones involved in several disorders, including those of the alimentary tract. In the present review, eligible studies focusing on the role of adiponectin and resistin in gastrointestinal diseases are manifested together and classified according to anatomic criteria. In addition, similarities and common patterns have been recognized, ultimately revealing an inverse association: the down-regulation of adiponectin and up-regulation of resistin - both in vitro and in vivo - in gastrointestinal disorders, irrespective of their diverse nature inflammatory, autoimmune or malignant - or anatomic position - esophageal, gastric, of the small intestine, colonic. Finally, a potential role for both adipokines in alimentary tract-related carcinogenesis has been identified, possibly representing a missing link between obesity and cancer. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd.
