Description
Adiponectin Polyclonal Antibody. Adipose cells produce and secrete numerous physiologically important proteins, such as lipoprotein lipase (LPL), leptin and adiponectin protein of 30 kDa. Adiponectin is a circulating protein that is secreted exclusively by differentiated adipocytes. During adipocyte differentiation, mRNA levels of Adiponectin have been shown to be induced over 100-fold. Studies indicate that Adiponectin enhances the ability of sub-physiological levels of insulin to suppress glucose production, thus linking adipose tissue to whole body glucose regulation. Adiponectin function appears to be regulated by phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3-K) since Adiponectin secretion is blocked by pharmacologic inhibitors of this kinase. mRN
