Complex Distribution, Not Absolute Amount of Adiponectin, Correlates with Thiazolidinedione-mediated Improvement in Insulin Sensitivity

Utpal B. Pajvani, +14 more
- 26 Mar 2004 - 
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that changes in SA in a number of type 2 diabetic cohorts serve as a quantitative indicator of improvements in insulin sensitivity obtained during TZD treatment, whereas changes in total serum adiponectin levels do not correlate well at the individual level.
Journal ArticleDOI

Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy (4th edition)

Daniel J. Klionsky, +2983 more
- 08 Feb 2021 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a set of guidelines for investigators to select and interpret methods to examine autophagy and related processes, and for reviewers to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of reports that are focused on these processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structure-Function Studies of the Adipocyte-secreted Hormone Acrp30/Adiponectin IMPLICATIONS FOR METABOLIC REGULATION AND BIOACTIVITY

Utpal B. Pajvani, +8 more
- 14 Mar 2003 - 
TL;DR: It is shown that there is a profound sexual dimorphism of Acrp30 levels and complex distribution in serum and a new model for in vivo activation of the protein, implicating a serum reductase activity is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adiponectin acts in the brain to decrease body weight

Yong Qi, +7 more
- 11 Apr 2004 - 
TL;DR: Results show that ADP has unique central effects on energy homeostasis, and indicates the melanocortin pathway may be a common target for ADP and leptin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mice Lacking Adiponectin Show Decreased Hepatic Insulin Sensitivity and Reduced Responsiveness to Peroxisome Proliferator-activated Receptor γ Agonists

Andrea R. Nawrocki, +11 more
- 03 Feb 2006 - 
TL;DR: Adiponectin is an important contributor to PPARγ-mediated improvements in glucose tolerance through mechanisms that involve the activation of the AMPK pathway.
