Background
Adipose tissue is the source for a variety of bioactive molecules that regulate metabolism and immunity termed adipokines, most of which are elevated in the circulation of obese individuals. Adiponectin functions as an insulin sensitizing factor, resulting in reduced hepatic glucose production, increased glucose uptake in the muscle, and increased fatty acid oxidation in the liver and muscle. In contrast to most adipokines, adiponectin is detected at high levels in normal human plasma, but is often reduced in obese subjects and in those with increased insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Due to its suggested protective role in insulin resistance, adiponectin may be a useful pharmacological target for various metabolic diseases.
