Journal ArticleDOI

Adiponectin promotes adipocyte differentiation, insulin sensitivity, and lipid accumulation.

TL;DR: A new role is suggested for adiponectin as an autocrine factor in adipose tissues: promoting cell proliferation and differentiation from preadipocytes into adipocytes, augmenting programmed gene expression responsible for adipogenesis, and increasing lipid content and insulin responsiveness of the glucose transport system in adipocytes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of Insulin Resistance and Type 2 Diabetes on Lipoprotein Subclass Particle Size and Concentration Determined by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance

TL;DR: It is concluded that insulin resistance had profound effects on lipoprotein size and subclass particle concentrations for VLDL, LDL, and HDL when measured by NMR; in type 2 diabetes, the lipop protein subclass alterations are moderately exacerbated but can be attributed primarily to the underlying insulin resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adiponectin multimeric complexes and the metabolic syndrome trait cluster.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the relationship between circulating levels of total adiponectin and the relative distribution of multimeric forms with key features of the metabolic syndrome and concluded that it is HMW quantity, not total or HMW-to-total adiponiectin ratio, that was primarily responsible for these relationships.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diabetic retinopathy and serum lipoprotein subclasses in the DCCT/EDIC cohort

TL;DR: The data are consistent with a role for dyslipoproteinemia involving lipoprotein subclasses in the pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy, and NMR-LSP reveals new associations between serum lipoproteins and severity ofretinopathy in type 1 diabetes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Blood sphingolipidomics in healthy humans: impact of sample collection methodology.

TL;DR: HBPLC-MS/MS should provide a tool for clinical testing of circulating bioactive sphingolipids in human blood and determine levels of sphingoid bases and SM species in isolated lipoprotein classes.
