Objective: The study was designed to test the effect of anti-diabetic agent pioglitazone and Endothelin-1 (ET-1) on adiponectin secretion from human adipose tissue in depot dependent manner.

Methods: Subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) and omental adipose tissues (OAT) were obtained from 19 subjects, including 6 non-obese controls, 7 obese and 6 obese T2DM patients. Adipose tissue was treated with pioglitazone and ET1. Adiponectin secreted into the culture medium after treatment at different time interval (0, 24, 48, 96 hours) was determined by ELISA and normalized for cellular DNA content.

Results: Basal adiponectin secretion from both the depots significantly associated with serum adiponectin, BMI, waist and HOMA-IR. Though no depot-specific difference was found in adiponectin secretion from SAT and OAT in our population, significant reduction in adiponectin secretion was observed in SAT of obese and T2DM patients compared to controls. Responsiveness to pioglitazone treatment was more in SAT, while ET1 inhibits adiponectin secretion in OAT.

Conclusion: These data suggest that, SAT, appears to be major contributor to regulation of adiponectin in circulation. Pioglitazone stimulate adiponectin secretion in SAT compared to OAT in diabetic patients while ET-1 inhibiting adiponectin secretion in OAT of diabetic patients. We need to focus on mechanism underlying these regulatory agents mediated stimulation or inhibition of adiponectin secretion in human adipose tissue.

The effects of maternal body weight on iodine concentration in breast milk and cord blood and infant growth.

Breast milk (BM) is the only source of iodine and bioactive compounds that influence growth and development in infants. The content of BM may be influenced by maternal body mass index (BMI). The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of maternal weight on BM and cord blood iodine concentrations, growth-related hormones, infant anthropometric measurements.

An elevated level of saturated fatty acids (SFAs) can cause non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). While n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) were shown to improve NAFLD, the effects of n-6 PUFAs in the liver have not been fully elucidated. We examined the association between NAFLD and n-6 PUFAs, particularly dihomo-γ-linolenic acid (DGLA), in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Integrin Trafficking, Fibronectin Architecture, and Glomerular Injury upon AdipoR1 Depletion.

J Am Soc Nephrol

January 2025

Research Program for Clinical and Molecular Metabolism, Faculty of Medicine, University of Helsinki, Helsinki, Finland.

Background: Deficiency of adiponectin and its downstream signaling may contribute to the pathogenesis of kidney injury in type 2 diabetes. Adiponectin activates intracellular signaling via adiponectin receptors 1 and 2 (AdipoR1 and AdipoR2), but the role of AdipoR-mediated signaling in glomerular injury in type 2 diabetes remains unknown.

Methods: The expression of AdipoR1 in the kidneys of people with type 2 diabetes and the expression of podocyte proteins or injury markers in the kidneys of AdipoR1-knockout (AdipoR1-KO) mice and immortalized AdipoR1-deficient human podocytes were investigated by immunohistochemistry and immunoblotting.

Relationships between nutritional status and serum adipokine levels with chemotherapy efficacy in late-stage colorectal cancer patients.

Department of Infectious Diseases (Hepatology), Affiliated Hospital of Shaoxing University, 999 Zhongxing South Road, Shaoxing, 312000, Zhejiang, China.

Objective: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a common cancer, with chemotherapy as its major therapy. Nutritional status (NS) and adipokines implicated in CRC. We explored the impacts of NS indicators (hemoglobin, albumin, and prealbumin) and serum adipokine (visfatin, adiponectin, and resistin) level on chemotherapy efficacy in late-stage CRC patients.

Introduction: Effects of Dapagliflozin (Dapa) and Dapagliflozin-Saxagliptin combination (Combo) was examined on peripheral blood derived CD34 + Hematopoetic Stem Cells (HSCs) as a cellular CVD biomarker. Both Dapa (a sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 or SGLT2, receptor inhibitor) and Saxagliptin (a Di-peptydl-peptidase-4 or DPP4 enzyme inhibitor) are commonly used type 2 diabetes mellitus or T2DM medications, however the benefit of using the combination has not been evaluated for cardio-renal risk assessment, in a real-life practice setting, compared to a placebo.

Hypothesis: We hypothesized that Dapa will improve the outcomes when compared to placebo and the Combo maybe even more beneficial.
