Abstract Aims/Introduction Adipose tissue‐derived hormones are associated with metabolic
disorders including type 2 diabetes mellitus. The present study investigated the levels of …

Abstract Aims Prevalence of Type 2 diabetes mellitus among Sudanese population was
found to be 3.4% and associated with high rates of complications and obesity. Different …

Insulin resistance, which implies impairment of insulin signaling in the target tissues, is a
common cause of type 2 diabetes. Adipose tissue plays an important role in insulin …

Adiponectin is an adipocytokine with insulin sensitizing effect while chronic inflammation
damages pancreatic β-cells leading to reduced insulin response. We aimed to prove the …

: Background: Obesity is associated with several chronic conditions such as atherosclerosis
and hypertension. All of these are risk factors that contribute to metabolic syndrome, which in …

OBJECTIVE—Adiponectin, synthesized in the adipose tissue, appears to play an important
role in hyperglycemia and dyslipidemia, as well as in inflammatory mechanisms, which lead …

Context: Adiponectin is a hormone secreted by adipocytes that acts as an antidiabetic
adipokine. Adiponectin exists as multimers in plasma, and high molecular weight (HMW) …

OBJECTIVE—Adiponectin, secreted by fat cells, has regulatory functions on energy
metabolism. Its low levels are predictive of future development of diabetes. Because no …

AIMS: To determine the relationship between plasma adiponectin levels and obesity,
inflammation, blood lipids and insulin resistance in type 2 diabetics (T2DM) and non …

Objectives Adiponectin is closely related to glucose metabolism and traditional diabetes risk
factors (obesity, hypertension and dyslipidaemia). We aimed to explore the association …
