Adiponectin and Adiponectin Receptors [PDF]
Endocrine Reviews, 2005 Metabolic syndrome is thought to result from obesity and obesity-linked insulin resistance. Obesity in adulthood is characterized by adipocyte hypertrophy. Adipose tissue participates in the regulation of energy homeostasis as an important endocrine organ that secretes a number of biologically active "adipokines."Heterozygous peroxisome proliferator ...

Adiponectin and Adiponectin Receptors in Atherosclerosis
Endocrine ReviewsAbstract Adiponectin is an abundantly secreted hormone that communicates information between the adipose tissue, and the immune and cardiovascular systems. In metabolically healthy individuals, adiponectin is usually found at high levels and helps improve insulin responsiveness of peripheral tissues, glucose tolerance, and fatty acid ...

Current Diabetes Reports, 2003
Adiponectin encoded by the APMI gene is one of the adipocyte-expressed proteins that function in the homeostatic control of glucose, lipid, and energy metabolism. Its dysregulation has been suggested to be involved in disorders covering the metabolic X syndrome, such as insulin resistance, obesity, type 2 diabetes, and coronary artery disease.

International Journal of Pediatric Obesity, 2008
Adiponectin, a hormone produced and secreted by adipocytes, is present in circulation in high circulating concentrations, suggesting an important physiological role. An indirect regulator of glucose metabolism, adiponectin increases insulin sensitivity, improves glucose tolerance and inhibits inflammation.

Future Cardiology, 2020
The adipose tissue, apart from storing energy, plays a role of an endocrine organ. One of the most important adipokines secreted by adipose tissue is adiponectin, which is also produced by cardiomyocytes and connective tissue cells within the heart. Adiponectin is known for its beneficial effect on the metabolism and cardiovascular system and its low ...

Anti-inflammatory, anti-atherogenic and anti-diabetic properties of adiponectin make this adipokine an attractive target in the metabolism research. Given its biological role, genetic variation in adiponectin affecting its function might consequently play a role in the pathophysiology of various metabolic disorders.

Adiponectin is an adipocyte-derived cytokine that acts as a major regulator of insulin sensitivity. Adiponectin deficiency can result in severe diabetes and metabolic disorders in humans. Since its discovery, our understanding of adiponectin's biological functions has expanded from insulin sensitization properties to new effects on inflammation ...

Diabetes & Metabolism, 2008
The discoveries of leptin and adiponectin were breakthroughs in the field of metabolic diseases. Adipose cells produce both proteins and release them into the circulation. Leptin acts as a fundamental signal for the brain to modulate food intake as a function of energy status. Loss of leptin function results in obesity.
