Adiponectin is an adipocyte-derived secretory protein that has been very widely studied over
the past 15 years. A multitude of different functions have been attributed to this adipokine. It …

Adiponectin is secreted by the adipose tissue and it has been shown to be down‐regulated
in states of insulin resistance and in cardiovascular disease. It has also been found to be …

Adiponectin is an adipose tissue–secreted endogenous insulin sensitizer, which plays a key
role as a mediator of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ action. Adiponectin alters …

The circulating protein adiponectin has been the subject of immense interest ever since it
was first discovered in the mid‐1990s. The protein is uniquely produced and secreted by …
