Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAdipokines Overview: The Major Component of Immune DysregulationAnastasia Vladimirovna Poznyak, Daria Dmitryevna Borodko, Stanislav Anatolievich Antonov et al.Purpose of Review: Obesity is increasingly recognized as an immune endocrine disorder rather than only a metabolic condition. This review critically examines how adipokines particularly adiponectin, resistin, adipsin, and chemerin mediate the interplay between obesity and autoimmunity. Unlike previous reviews that broadly surveyed cytokines, our focus is on comparative roles of specific adipokines across multiple autoimmune diseases. Recent Findings: Evidence … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 11 Aug 2026 · 879 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAdiponectin mRNA Expression in the Cat (Felis domesticus)Angela L. Lusby, Stephen A. Kania, Joseph W. Bartges, Claudia A. KirkProblem statement: Adiponectin is a hormone expressed from adipose tissue in people, rodents and dogs. Adiponectin has anti-inflammatory action with beneficial effects on cardiovascular health and insulin sensitivity. With increasing fat mass, adiponectin concentrations paradoxically decrease. Adiponectin’s role in metabolism and diabetes mellitus is of interest in feline medicine because cats are susceptible to developing type II diabetes with weight … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 27 Dec 2010 · 7,784 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsLeptin and Adiponectin in the HIV Associated Metabolic Syndrome: Physiologic and Therapeutic ImplicationsSotirios Tsiodras, Christos MantzorosLeptin and adiponectin represent two newly discovered adipose tissue derived hormones with important roles in energy homeostasis and insulin resistance. Their interrelations with the manifestations of the HIV associated metabolic syndrome and specific somatomorphic changes i.e. fat redistribution is reviewed. A synopsis of published studies is presented and the potential role of leptin and adiponectin is discussed. We have described … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 10,099 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Mechanisms for Altered Glucose Homeostasis in HIV InfectionPaula W. HruzA complete understanding of the molecular mechanisms leading to HIV-associated insulin resistance remains elusive. Complex interrelationships between genetic predisposition, disease-related body changes and multidrug therapy all contribute to alterations in glucose homeostasis. These abnormalities can be differentiated between acute and reversible changes directly induced by HAART medications and more chronic and less reversible changes due to the development of lipodystrophy … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,877 accessesView PDF Cite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractObesity as a Predisposing Factor for AtherosclerosisAnastasia Vladimirovna Poznyak, Victoria Alexandrovna Khotina et al.Obesity stands as a pressing global health concern, associated with a myriad of threats to human well-being and longevity. Within the scope of this review, we zero in on how obesity impacts the onset of atherosclerosis, given its well-established link as a risk factor in its development. The progression of atherosclerosis is notably hastened by obesity, driven by a host … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 2 · 23 Jul 2025 · 2,737 accessesView PDF Cite
