Circulating adiponectin concentrations are reduced in obese individuals, and this reduction
has been proposed to have a crucial role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and …

Recent studies emphasize the role played by adiponectin in the homeostasis of adipose
tissue and in the pathogenesis of the metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, and …

Background Previous research has linked elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-
C) and remnant cholesterol (RC) with diabetes mellitus (DM). The present study aims to …

Aims/hypothesis We determined whether hepatic fat content and plasma adiponectin
concentration regulate VLDL 1 production. Methods A multicompartment model was used to …

OBJECTIVE To determine whether testosterone therapy improves glucose metabolism in
men with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and lowered testosterone. RESEARCH DESIGN AND …

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 …

Purpose Remnant cholesterol (RC) is the cholesterol of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins, which
has a high degree of atherogenic effect. To date, epidemiological evidence supports that …

Background: Adiponectin, an adipocyte-derived hormone, appears to be a modulator of lipid
metabolism and systemic inflammation and is present in particularly low concentrations in …

The ability of alternate‐day fasting (ADF) to modulate adipocyte parameters in a way that is
protective against coronary heart disease (CHD) has yet to be tested. Accordingly, we …

Background: Visfatin is an insulin-mimicking adipokine. Visfatin is elevated in obesity and
type 2 diabetes. However, its role in glucose and lipid metabolism in healthy humans is …
