Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity in Peripheral Arterial Disease: adiponectin
{"Image DocumentName": "Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity in Peripheral Arterial Disease: adiponectin", "Image ImageDescription": "Adiponectin is one of a number of proteins secreted by adipose cells that might couple regulation of. insulin sensitivity with energy metabolism and serve to link. obesity with insulin resistance. Adiponectin stimulates production. of NO, reduces expression of adhesion molecules in endothelial cells, and decreases cytokine production. Plasma levels of adiponectin are negatively correlated with adiposity, and decreased plasma adiponectin levels are observed in patients with obesity and type II diabetes.
