The understanding of adipose tissue role has evolved from that of a depot energy storage
organ to a dynamic endocrine organ. While genetics, sexual phenotype and sex steroids …

In the liver, adiponectin regulates both glucose and lipid metabolism and exerts an insulin-
sensitizing effect. The binding of adiponectin with its specific receptors induces the activation …

Adiponectin is the hormone that belongs to the group of adipokines, chemical agents mainly
derived from the white adipose tissue. The hormone plays pleiotropic roles in the organism …

Metabolic disorders such as obesity and type 2 diabetes are one of the most familiar risk
factors in the present time among every age-group. It is associated with altered levels of …

Our aim was to study the expression of adipokine‐encoding genes (leptin, adiponectin, and
angiopoietin‐like protein 4 (ANGPTL4)) in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) …

Throughout the entire first trimester of pregnancy, fetal growth is sustained by endometrial
secretions, ie histiotrophic nutrition. Endometrial stromal cells (EnSCs) accumulate and …

Objective: Factors influencing intraamniotic adiponectin levels and their functional
significance remain incompletely elucidated. We prospectively measured adiponectin in …

Recent evidences have indicated that adiponectin and its receptors have an effect on male
reproduction. The objective of this study was to detect the expression of adiponectin …

Background and aim The aim of this study was to investigate the association between serum
adiponectin levels and some clinical and hormonal parameters in cases of pre-eclampsia …

Die von Adipozyten sekretierten Hormone Adiponektin und Leptin sind unter anderem an
