The role of adiponectin in ischemia-reperfusion syndrome: a literature review

ABSTRACT Adiponectin, among other diverse adipokines, is produced in greater quantity and has an effect on the adipose tissue and other tissues in the body. Adiponectin plays three main roles: regulatory metabolic and sensitizing function of insulin in the liver and muscles; it acts as an anti-inflammato...

Pancreatic β-cell function is inhibited by miR-3666 in type 2 diabetes mellitus by targeting adiponectin

Braz. j. med. biol. res; 52 (6), 2019
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) is a common endocrine and metabolic disorder, and poses threats to human health worldwide. Recently, microRNAs (miRNAs) have been suggested to play important roles in the pathophysiology of T2D. In this study, we explored the role of miR-3666 in T2D. miR-3666 was significan...

Adiponectin levels and sleep deprivation in patients with endocrine metabolic disorders

SUMMARY BACKGROUND: Sleep abnormalities are frequent in patients with endocrine metabolic disorders (EMD) such as arterial hypertension, diabetes and obesity. Adiponectin is a peptide largely secreted by adipocytes and has various properties e.g. anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antiatherogenic, pro-angi...

Relationships between adiponectin levels, the metabolic syndrome, and type 2 diabetes: a literature review

ABSTRACT Elevated hepatic glucose production, impaired insulin secretion, and insulin resistance - abnormalities of glucose metabolism typically found in subjects with obesity - are major factors underlying the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes (DM2) and the metabolic syndrome (MS). Adiponectin is a major ...

Adiponectin inhibits oxidization-induced differentiation of T helper cells through inhibiting costimulatory CD40 and CD80

Braz. j. med. biol. res; 50 (6), 2017
Adiponectin is a multifunctional adipokine that has several oligomeric forms in the blood stream, which broadly regulates innate and acquired immunity. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to observe the differentiation of T helper (Th) cells and expression of costimulatory signaling molecules affected by ...

Potential role of marine algae extract on 3T3-L1 cell proliferation and differentiation: an in vitro approach

Biol. Res; 49 (), 2016
BACKGROUND: From ancient times, marine algae have emerged as alternative medicine and foods, contains the rich source of natural products like proteins, vitamins, and secondary metabolites, especially Chlorella vulgaris (C. vulgaris) contains numerous anti-inflammatory, antioxidants and wound healing sub...

Adiponectin effect on nitric oxide secretion by normal and endometriotic human endometrial stromal cells: in vitro study

Int. j. morphol; 33 (1), 2015
Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent disease in reproductive age women. Adiponectin and Nitric oxide (NO) have an important role in physiologic functions especially in human reproductive system. Levels of NO increased in the endometriosis patients but serum adiponectin levels decreased in woman with en...

Papel de la sensibilidad a la sal y los polimorfismos genéticos como determinantes de la modificación de los factores de riesgo cardiovascular durante la pérdida de peso en sujetos con sobrepeso u obesidad

El incremento de la ingesta de sal no siempre se acompaña de un aumento en la presión arterial; aquellos sujetos que así lo hacen, son denominados Sal Sensibles (SS), mientras que los que no, se denominan Sal Resistentes (SR). La sensibilidad a la sal se ha asociado con mayor riesgo cardiometabólico ...
