Adiponectin (15-244aa), Human

pDESCRIPTION: Human Adiponectin, also referred to as AdipoQ, Acrp30, apm-1 or GBP28, is a secreted Protein expressed exclusively in differentiated adipocyte(adipokine). Adiponectin contains a modular structure comprising an N-terminal collagenous domain followed by a C-terminal globular domain. Adiponectin plays a role in various physiological processes such as energy homeostasis and obesity. Plasma levels of adiponectin are reduced in obese humans, and decreased levels are associated with insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia.br /
