Adiponectin forms a complex with atherogenic LDL and inhibits its downstream effects
Adiponectin, an adipocyte-derived protein, has antiatherogenic and antidiabetic effects, but how it confers the atherogenic effects is not well known.

Adiponectin Signaling Regulates Lipid Production in Human Sebocytes. [PDF]
Adiponectin plays important roles in metabolic function, inflammation and multiple biological activities in various tissues. However, evidence for adiponectin signaling in sebaceous glands is lacking, and its role remains to be clarified.

The Skinny on Adiponectin [PDF]
The search for mechanisms connecting regulation of body weight and eating has been a long one, beginning with the early hypothalamic lesion studies by Hetherington and Ranson (1) and others indicating the importance of certain nuclei in the regulation of appetite and body weight (see Ref. 2).

Adiponectin deficiency promotes tumor growth in mice by reducing macrophage infiltration. [PDF]
Adiponectin is an adipocyte-derived plasma protein that has been implicated in regulating angiogenesis, but the role of adiponectin in regulating this process is still controversial.

Adiponectin signalling in bone homeostasis, with age and in disease
Adiponectin is the most abundant circulating adipokine and is primarily involved in glucose metabolism and insulin resistance. Within the bone, osteoblasts and osteoclasts express the adiponectin receptors, however, there are conflicting reports on the ...
