A groundbreaking study reveals that neurons can burn fat, challenging the long-held belief that the brain relies solely on glucose for fuel.

Proteins have specific biological functions in cells through conformational changes and interactions. Therefore, precise, in ...

Having more of the 18-subunit adipo-nectin lowers a person's risk for type 2 diabetes. We wanted to know how fat cells put subunits of adiponectin together to make the final complex.

Key Takeaways Nerandomilast significantly slowed lung function decline in patients with IPF, with the 18 mg dose showing a 68.8 mL FVC decline reduction compared with placebo. The trial included ...

Background Resistance to the insulin-sensitising adipocytokine, adiponectin, has been described at the level of the skeletal muscle in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). Objective To ...

Adiponectin, as mentioned above, may exert its protective effect through increasing insulin action and secretion, [7, 20] as well as opposing the effects of tumor necrosis factor-α, [8] thus ...

An increase in adiponectin levels was also shown in the murine MASH model (STAM). These in-vitro and in-vivo results were consistent with translational data from the phase 2 study of namodenoson in ...

Serum levels of specific immunoglobulin E (IgE), leptin and adiponectin were quantified in 35 controls and 111 ATH children, in which 54 were non-atopic and 57 were atopic. Spearman’s correlation ...

However, hormones are critical to many bodily functions and affect many aspects of daily life, such as sleeping, waking, digestion, the absorption of nutrients, mood, and more. So what are hormones?

ABSTRACT Adipokines serve as a human clinical biomarker and they regulate mammalian metabolic functions. Research on adipokine regulation of metabolic function in avian species is limited. The current ...

High levels of circulating adiponectin are associated with increased insulin sensitivity, low prevalence of diabetes, and low body mass index (BMI); however, high levels of circulating adiponectin are ...

Evidence suggests there might be a causal relationship between high serum adiponectin and a decreased risk of developing idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), however, adipokines such as leptin, ...
