Low concentrations of adiponectin, the protein product of the APM1 gene, have been reported to be associated with obesity and insulin resistance. However, contrasting results have been described ...

Adiponectin is a peptide hormone secreted by the adipocytes. Other cells such as skeletal and cardiac myocytes as well as endothelial cells also produce adiponectin.

Adiponectin, as mentioned above, may exert its protective effect through increasing insulin action and secretion, [7, 20] as well as opposing the effects of tumor necrosis factor-α, [8] thus ...

Adiponectin, a hormone secreted by adipose tissue, plays a doubly important role in preserving pancreatic function: in lean people, it protects beta cells, which make insulin, and in obese people ...

Serum adiponectin concentration was similarly associated with cancer-related deaths (HR = 1.23; 95% CI, 1.03-1.47), with results persisting after adjustment.

Adiponectin, a hormone derived from visceral fat, sensitizes the body to insulin, has anti-inflammatory properties, and plays a role in the metabolism of glucose and lipids.

Adiponectin has effects on cell proliferation and cytokine production, 45 and experiments both in vitro and in animal models suggest an interaction between adiponectin and ERs. 46 – 49 Adiponectin is ...
