It has been two decades since the discovery of adiponectin, and today its role in insulin
resistance, inflammation, and atherosclerosis are areas of major interest. Production of …

Adiponectin, an adipose-derived plasma protein, has been well established to be an
important biomarker for metabolic syndrome and its complications after exhausted studies in …

Adiponectin is an adipocytokine with profound antidiabetic and antiatherogenic effects that
is decreased in obesity. With the increasing prevalence of obesity and the emergence of …

Objectives Perivascular adipose tissue secretes an adipocyte-derived relaxing factor
(s)(ADRF) that opens Kv channels in rat arteries. Visceral fat accumulation causes adipocyte …

Background—Circulating adiponectin levels are lower in men than in women and lower in
advanced coronary artery disease, obesity, and type 2 but not type 1 diabetes. However, it is …

Adipose tissue is a major source of inflammatory and thrombotic cytokines. This study
investigated the relationship of abdominal subcutaneous adipose tissue cytokine gene …

Summary objective Adiponectin is an adipocyte‐specific secretory protein which exhibits
antiatherogenic, anti‐inflammatory and antidiabetic properties. We hypothesized that …

OBJECTIVES: To examine the prevalence of the metabolic syndrome using different
pediatric definitions reported in the literature and its relationship to abdominal adipose …

Adiponectin is one of the most thoroughly studied adipocytokines. Low plasma levels of
adiponectin are found to associate with obesity, metabolic syndrome, diabetes and many …

An increase in bodyweight is generally associated with an increased risk of excessive fat-
related metabolic diseases (EFRMD), including Type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension and …
