Adiponectin is an abundant plasma protein secreted from adipocytes that elicits protective
effects in the vasculature and myocardium. In obesity and insulin-resistant states …

Adiponectin (Ad) is a cytokine produced by adipocytes that acts on specific receptors of
several tissues through autocrine, paracrine, and endocrine signaling mechanisms. Ad is …

Adiponectin is a 29-kDa adipocyte protein that has been linked to the insulin resistance of
obesity and lipodystrophy. To better understand the regulation of adiponectin expression …

Adiponectin is a protein synthesized and secreted predominantly by adipocytes into the
peripheral blood. However, circulating adiponectin level is inversely related with body …

Background The metabolic syndrome, a cluster of abdominal obesity, dyslipidemia,
hypertension and hyperglycemia, is a common basis for atherosclerotic vascular diseases in …

Adiponectin is the most abundant peptide secreted by adipocytes, being a key component in
the interrelationship between adiposity, insulin resistance and inflammation. Central obesity …

Aim: Adiponectin is a protein produced exclusively by adipocytes with putative insulin‐
sensitizing and anti‐atherogenic properties. This cross‐sectional study investigated the …

Adiponectin circulates in blood in multiple isoforms. High molecular weight (HMW)
adiponectin is thought to be most biologically active and promotes glucose uptake, insulin …

Adiponectin, an adipose tissue-specific plasma protein, was recently revealed to have anti-
