Adiponectin reverses β‐Cell damage and impaired insulin secretion induced by obesity

Aging Cell, Volume 22, Issue 6, June 2023., 2023
Incubation of β‐cells with sera or plasma from obese rats and humans hampers mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation and glucose‐stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) relative to sera and plasma from lean rats and humans. Adiponectin, found at elevated levels in lean subjects, supports β‐cell function on its own, in the absence of sera, and also reverses
