Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAdiponectin Regulation in Type 2 Diabetic Rats: Effects of Insulin, Metformin and DexamethasoneTamer Ahmed Ismail, Mohamed Mohamed Soliman, Shimaa Ahmed IsmailAdiponectin is a protein synthesized from adipose tissue, increases peripheral glucose utilization in liver and skeletal muscle. Adiponectin expression and secretion are decreased during obesity and insulin resistance. In this study, the effect of insulin, metformin and dexamethasone on serum lipid profiles was examined in Type 2 Diabetic (T2D) rats. T2D was induced by feeding rats a high fat diet … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 23 Nov 2013 · 7,723 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAdiponectin 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 PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleExpression of Adiponectin Receptors in Human Placenta and Its Possible Implication in Gestational DiabetesNaglaa Fathy Al Husseini, Mosaad M. Odaa, M.A. Mohamed et al.Problem statement: Similar to obese patients and type 2 diabetic patients, adiponectin levels are reduced in former Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) patients and are lower in GDM women during late pregnancy compared with pregnant control subjects matched for BMI. Diabetic insult at later stages in gestation, such as may occur in gestational diabetes, will foremost lead to short-term changes in … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,193 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Exercise Training on Adiponectin Receptor Expression and Insulin Resistance in Mice Fed a High Fat DietNaglaa Fathy Alhusseini, Nasr Arafat Belacy, Enas Mohammed Kasem, Mona Maher AllamProblem statement: Adiponectin is an adipocyte secreted hormones, exerts its effects via the specific receptors. AdipoR1 and adipoR2 and plays a pivotal role in lipid and glucose metabolism. Approach: We investigated the effect of increased physical activities on insulin resistance and if this effect is modulated through adiponectin receptor expression. Results: We also assessed the effect of High Fat Diet … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 9,951 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleLeptin 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 PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsWeight Gain, Conditioning and Metabolic Syndrome: A Sled Dog ModelAline Collin, Shannon Jimmie, Arleigh Reynolds et al.Type II Diabetes (T2D) and insulin resistance are growing national health concerns. Obesity is a risk factor for developing T2D and is associated with chronic and systemic inflammation. Exercise on the other hand has been shown to improve glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity. We investigated the effects of conditioning and weight gain on adiponectin, tumor necrosis factor and glycosylated hemoglobin, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 15, Issue 3 · 18 Aug 2019 · 7,728 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTHYROID HORMONES (T3 AND T4) AS A MARKER OF UTERINE CANCER RISK FACTOR AFTER MENOPAUSEZena A.M. Al-JawadiDue to limited available information of the correlation between T3 and T4 on uterine cancer. This study focused on the following: Possibility of T3 and T4 as a marker of uterine cancer by studying the relationship between T3 and T4 and uterine cancer through a hormonal parameters. The study included collection of samples attending the Hospitals in Mosul, divided to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 5 · 15 Mar 2014 · 6,932 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdipokines 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 PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEFFECT OF PIOGLITAZONE ON HEPATIC ULTRA-STRUCTURE AND METABOLIC CHANGES INDUCED BY A HIGH SUCROSE DIET IN RATSMohamed D. Morsy, Ahmed S. Khashaba, Ahmed I. Agamy, Refaat A. EidPioglitazone (Pio) is a PPAR-γ agonist insulin sensitizer has anti-inflammatory activity. Our novel aspect was to investigate its hepatic anti-inflammatory activity at the level of ultra-structure and enzymatic changes in a high sucrose diet animal model. Forty male Sprague Dawley rats were divided into four equal groups: Control; control Pio; high sucrose diet; high sucrose diet Pio treated groups. Fourteen … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 7 · 23 Apr 2014 · 6,732 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRELATIONSHIPS AMONG INDICATORS OF FITNESS, FATNESS AND CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE RISK FACTORS IN ADOLESCENTSRobert Malina, Stephen-Mark Cooper, John Young et al.In adults, fatness and low cardiorespiratory fitness are associated with a higher prevalence of chronic disease risk and mortality. The association between measures of physical fitness and fatness upon cardiovascular risk in youth, however, is less clear. The effects of adiposity and physical fitness upon cardiovascular disease risk factors in youth are receiving increasing attention but studies that have examined … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 7 Aug 2012 · 8,114 accessesView PDFCite
