Adiponectin and immune tolerance in type 1 diabetes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is characterised by pancreatic cell autoimmunity and inflammation, resulting in cell islet destruction and insulin deficiency.

Low adiponectin levels are an independent predictor of mixed and non-calcified coronary atherosclerotic plaques. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Atherosclerosis is the primary cause of coronary artery disease (CAD). There is increasing recognition that lesion composition rather than size determines the acute complications of atherosclerotic disease.

A Genome-Wide Association Study Reveals Variants in ARL15 that Influence Adiponectin Levels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The adipocyte-derived protein adiponectin is highly heritable and inversely associated with risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) and coronary heart disease (CHD). We meta-analyzed 3 genome-wide association studies for circulating adiponectin levels (n =

Circulating High-Molecular-Weight (HMW) Adiponectin Level Is Related with Breast Cancer Risk Better than Total Adiponectin: A Case-Control Study. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The level of total adiponectin, a mixture of different adiponectin forms, has been reported associated with breast cancer risk with inconsistent results. Whether the different forms play different roles in breast cancer risk prediction is unclear.

Effects of telmisartan and ramipril on adiponectin and blood pressure in patients with type 2 diabetes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
<b>Background:</b> Adiponectin is secreted by adipose tissue and may play a role in cardiovascular disease. We examined adiponectin levels in patients with type 2 diabetes who participated in the Telmisartan vs.

Relationship of serum adiponectin and resistin to glucose intolerance and fat topography in south-Asians [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Objectives South-Asians have lower adiponectin levels compared to Caucasians. It was not clear however, if this intrinsic feature is related to aspects of glucose metabolism.

Accuracy of circulating adiponectin for predicting gestational diabetes : a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Aims/hypothesis Universal screening for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) has not been implemented, and this has had substantial clinical implications. Biomarker-directed targeted screening might be feasible.

Short-term overfeeding increases circulating adiponectin independent of obesity status. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Adiponectin is an adipose tissue derived hormone which strengthens insulin sensitivity. However, there is little data available regarding the influence of a positive energy challenge (PEC) on circulating adiponectin and the role of obesity status on this

Novel Loci for Adiponectin Levels and Their Influence on Type 2 Diabetes and Metabolic Traits: A Multi-Ethnic Meta-Analysis of 45,891 Individuals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Circulating levels of adiponectin, a hormone produced predominantly by adipocytes, are highly heritable and are inversely associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) and other metabolic traits.

A novel enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay specific for high-molecular-weight adiponectin

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2006
Human plasma contains at least three forms of adiponectin: a trimer, a hexamer, and a high-molecular-weight (HMW) multimer. We purified HMW adiponectin from human plasma using its affinity to gelatin and obtained monoclonal antibodies against it.
