PURPOSE Adiponectin (APM1)--a newly discovered adipocytokine secreted by fat tissue--was recently suggested to play a role in the genetic predisposition to type 2 diabetes, obesity and insulin resistance. Adiponectin gene is localized on chromosome 3q27 within the region which was identified as susceptibility locus for type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome. Till now genetic associations of two...
Adiponectin is secreted from adipocytes, and low circulating levels have been epidemiologically associated with obesity, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. To investigate whether adiponectin could exert autocrine effects in adipocytes, we expressed the adiponectin gene in 3T3-L1 fibroblasts. We observed that 3T3-L1 fibroblasts expressing adiponectin have a fast gro...
OBJECTIVES This study examined the association of mutations in adiponectin gene with the prevalence of coronary artery disease (CAD). BACKGROUND Coronary artery disease is a major cause of mortality in the industrial countries. Adiponectin gene locus, chromosome 3q27, is the candidate site for CAD. We have reported that adiponectin has antiatherogenic and antidiabetic properties, and that the...
Plasma adiponectin and the coding gene for adiponectin, ADIPOQ, are thought to explain part of the interaction between obesity, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and coronary artery disease (CAD). Here, we illustrate the role that adiponectin and ADIPOQ variants might play in the modulation of CAD, especially in the occurrence of hyperglycemia. Recent evidence suggests that total and h...
Background and Purpose—The adipocytokines adiponectin and leptin have been suggested as risk factors for cardiovascular disease, including stroke, acting through atherosclerosis. However, studies have provided conflicting results in underpowered cohorts with some suggesting that the leptin:adiponectin ratio is a better predictor of risk. We examined these associations with carotid intima-media ...
background: endometriosis is a complex disorder in reproductive age women which consist of stromal and epithelial cells implantation outside the uterine cavity. adiponectin is a member of cytokine family with various metabolic roles and proliferation inhibition of many cancer cells. the aim of the present research was to determine adiponectin effect on human endometriotic stromal cells (escs) p...

We isolated the human adipose-specific and most abundant gene transcript, apM1 (Maeda, K., et al., Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 221, 286-289, 1996). The apM1 gene product was a kind of soluble matrix protein, which we named adiponectin. To quantitate the plasma adiponectin concentration, we have produced monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies for human adiponectin and developed an enzyme-linked...
BACKGROUND Adiponectin is an adipokine with potentially important roles in human cardiovascular disease states. We studied the role of adiponectin in the cross-talk between adipose tissue and vascular redox state in patients with atherosclerosis. METHODS AND RESULTS The study included 677 patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery. Endothelial function was evaluated by flow-medi...
Adiponectin is a cytokine hormone originally found to be secreted exclusively by white adipose tissue. However, recent evidences suggest that adiponectin is also produced in brown adipose tissue and skeletal muscle. The present study investigated the expression of adiponectin mRNA in various tissues in the chicken. We also studied the effect of food deprivation on adiponectin gene expression in...
