Differential adipokine receptor expression on circulating leukocyte subsets in lean and obese children. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Childhood obesity prevalence has increased worldwide and is an important risk factor for type 2 diabetes (T2D) and cardiovascular disease (CVD). The production of inflammatory adipokines by obese adipose tissue contributes to the development of T2D and ...

RBP4: a controversial adipokine [PDF]
European Journal of Endocrinology, 2011 Adipose tissue is an endocrine organ secreting biologically active factors called adipokines that act on both local and distant tissues. Adipokines have an important role in the development of obesity-related comorbidities not only in adults but also in ...

The Roles and Associated Mechanisms of Adipokines in Development of Metabolic Syndrome
Molecules, 2022 Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of metabolic indicators that increase the risk of diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. Visceral obesity and factors derived from altered adipose tissue, adipokines, play critical roles in the development of metabolic ...

Annales d'Endocrinologie, 2016 Adipose tissue is now widely recognized as "an organ" able to synthesize and secrete hundred factors collectively called adipokines. These secreted molecules exert pleiotropic actions, notably on the regulation of glucose and lipid metabolism, inflammation, reproduction, or angiogenesis.

The Adipokines in Cancer Cachexia [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020 Cachexia is a devastating pathology induced by several kinds of diseases, including cancer. The hallmark of cancer cachexia is an extended weight loss mainly due to skeletal muscle wasting and fat storage depletion from adipose tissue. The latter exerts key functions for the health of the whole organism, also through the secretion of several adipokines.
