8 Adiponectin is the only
adipocytokine that has insulin-sensitising property.
Relationship between increasing body weight, insulin resistance, inflammation,
adipocytokine leptin, and coronary circulatory function.
Resistin is an
adipocytokine whose effects on glucose metabolism are antagonistic to those of insulin8.
Noting that Artemis is exploring the weight management potential of berries or other sources of anthocyanins such as purple corn, he adds, "Anthocyanins influence
adipocytokine expression and show exciting anti-obesity potential in animal trials.
Levels of the
adipocytokine leptin--known to be related to insulin resistance--increased stepwise from the normal to the overweight to the metabolic syndrome subjects.
Adiponectin (Acrp30), an
adipocytokine, is important in many therapeutic arenas, including type 2 diabetes, obesity, atherosclerosis, and rheumatoid arthritis.
Influence of epicardial adipose tissue and
adipocytokine levels on cardiac abnormalities in visceral obesity.
Adiponectin (also termed acrp 30, adipoQ, APM-1, GBP28) is an
adipocytokine that is generally and abundantly expressed in adipose tissue and directly sensitizes the cells to insulin.
Conclusion: Visfatin is a potential antilipidemic
adipocytokine that probably modulates insulin sensitivity and decreases atherogenic lipids (triglycerides, cholesterol, LDL and VLDL) with concomitant increase in HDL in obesity and diabetes mellitus.
