Cardioprotection by Adiponectin [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2006
Obesity-related disorders are closely associated with the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease. Adiponectin is a circulating adipose tissue-derived hormone that is down-regulated in obese individuals. Hypoadiponectinemia has been identified as an independent risk factor for type 2 diabetes, coronary artery disease, and hypertension, and experimental ...

Adiponectin [PDF]

open access: yesArteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2006
The obesity pandemic will likely have a significant impact on the global incidence of cardiovascular disease. Although the mechanisms linking obesity and cardiovascular disease are unclear, recent studies have implicated the adipocyte as a potentially important mediator of vascular complications.

Treatment-Induced Changes in Plasma Adiponectin Do Not Reduce Urinary Albumin Excretion in the Diabetes Prevention Program Cohort. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:Molecular data suggests that adiponectin may directly regulate urinary albumin excretion. In the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) we measured adiponectin and albuminuria before and after intervention, and we previously reported

Adiponectin [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation Research, 2016
Adiponectin is the most adipocyte-specific of all secretory factors described to date. Despite its exclusive expression at the level of the fat cell, adiponectin concentrations in plasma are generally inversely proportional to fat mass.1,2 More detailed studies reveal that it is not fat mass, but rather fat quality that is the driving force for ...

Age Associated Changes In Transcription Of Adiponectin, AdipoR1 And AdipoR2 Genes In Pancreas Of Rats [PDF]

open access: yesCell Journal, 2020
Objective Adiponectin has a crucial role in the function, proliferation and viability of β-cell via action of two receptors: AdipoR1 and AdipoR2. Nevertheless, age related change of Adiponectin system genes in pancreas is unclear or controversial.

Adiponectin and Hypertension [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hypertension, 2011
Adipose tissue secretes a variety of bioactive molecules, also known as adipocytokines or adipokines. Obesity, in particular, visceral fat accumulation, is implicated in the dysregulated secretion of adipocytokines, which can contribute to the development of metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular diseases.

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.

Ratiometric measurements of adiponectin by mass spectrometry in bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) with iron overload reveal an association with insulin resistance and glucagon

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2013
High molecular weight (HMW) adiponectin levels are reduced in humans with type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance. Similar to humans with insulin resistance, managed bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) diagnosed with hemochromatosis (iron overload ...

Time course of adiponectin and its relationship to psychological aspects in patients with anorexia nervosa during inpatient treatment. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
The protein hormone adiponectin promotes metabolic and psychological health. The aim of the study was to track changes in adiponectin levels in response to weight gain and to assess associations between adiponectin and psychological aspects in patients ...

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 =
