Westernization of lifestyle affects quantitative and qualitative changes in adiponectin

Westernization of lifestyle affects quantitative and qualitative changes in adiponectin

BACKGROUND Although Japanese-Americans and native Japanese share the same genetic predispositions, they live different lifestyles, resulting in insulin resistance in Japanese-Americans. We investigated whether the quantitative and qualitative changes in adiponectin (APN) due to differences in lifestyle contribute to the development of insulin resistance. METHODS We evaluated 325 native Japane...

Correlation of Adiponectin mRNA Abundance and Its Receptors with Quantitative Parameters of Sperm Motility in Rams

Objective Adiponectin and its receptors (AdipoR1 and AdipoR2), known as adiponectin system, have some proven roles in the fat and glucose metabolisms. Several studies have shown that adiponectin can be considered as a candidate in linking metabolism to testicular function. In this regard, we evaluated the correlation between sperm mRNA abundance of adiponectin and its receptors, with sperm moti...
