Adiponectin is a 244-amino-acid-long polypeptide [[Hormone#Animal|(protein)]]. There are four distinct regions of adiponectin. The first is a short signal sequence that targets the hormone for secretion outside the cell; next is a short region that varies between species; the third is a 65-amino acid region with similarity to collagenous proteins; the last is a globular domain. Overall this protein shows similarity to the complement 1Q factors ([[C1q|C1Q]]). However, when the 3-dimensional structure of the globular region was determined, a striking similarity to [[Tumor necrosis factor-alpha|TNFα]] was observed, despite unrelated protein sequences.<ref name="pmid9512423">{{cite journal | vauthors = Shapiro L, Scherer PE | title = The crystal structure of a complement-1q family protein suggests an evolutionary link to tumor necrosis factor | journal = Current Biology | volume = 8 | issue = 6 | pages = 335–8 | date = March 1998 | pmid = 9512423 | doi = 10.1016/S0960-9822(98)70133-2 }}</ref>

Adiponectin is secreted into the bloodstream where it accounts for approximately 0.01% of all plasma protein at around 5-10 μg/mL (mg/L).

'''Adiponectin''' (also referred to as '''Acrp30''', '''apM1''') is a protein [[hormone]] that modulates a number of metabolic processes, including [[glucose]] regulation and [[fatty acid]] [[catabolism]]. Adiponectin is exclusively secreted from [[adipose tissue]] into the [[blood]]stream and is very abundant in [[blood plasma|plasma]] relative to many hormones. Levels of the hormone are inversely correlated with body fat percentage. The hormone plays a role in the suppression of the metabolic derangements that may result in [[Diabetes mellitus type 2|type 2 diabetes]], [[obesity]], [[atherosclerosis]] and [[non-alcoholic fatty liver disease]] (NAFLD).
Adiponectin automatically self-associates into larger structures. Initially, three adiponectin molecules bind together to form a homotrimer. The [[Protein trimer|trimer]]s continue to self-associate and form hexamers or dodecamers. Like the plasma concentration, the relative levels of the higher-order structures are sexually dimorphic, where females have increased proportions of the high-molecular weight forms. Recent studies showed that the high-molecular weight form may be the most biologically active form regarding glucose homeostasis.<ref name="Oh_2007">{{cite journal | vauthors = Oh DK, Ciaraldi T, Henry RR | title = Adiponectin in health and disease | journal = Diabetes, Obesity & Metabolism | volume = 9 | issue = 3 | pages = 282–9 | date = May 2007 | pmid = 17391153 | doi = 10.1111/j.1463-1326.2006.00610.x }}</ref> High-molecular-weight adiponectin was further found to be associated with a lower risk of diabetes with similar magnitude of association as total adiponectin.<ref name="pmid20719834">{{cite journal | vauthors = Zhu N, Pankow JS, Ballantyne CM, Couper D, Hoogeveen RC, Pereira M, Duncan BB, Schmidt MI | title = High-molecular-weight adiponectin and the risk of type 2 diabetes in the ARIC study | journal = The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism | volume = 95 | issue = 11 | pages = 5097–104 | date = November 2010 | pmid = 20719834 | pmc = 2968724 | doi = 10.1210/jc.2010-0716 }}</ref> However, [[coronary artery disease]] has been found to be positively associated with high molecular weight adiponectin, but not with low molecular weight adiponectin.<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Rizza S, Gigli F, Galli A, Micchelini B, Lauro D, Lauro R, Federici M | title = Adiponectin isoforms in elderly patients with or without coronary artery disease | journal = Journal of the American Geriatrics Society | volume = 58 | issue = 4 | pages = 702–6 | date = April 2010 | pmid = 20398150 | doi = 10.1111/j.1532-5415.2010.02773.x }}</ref>

Adiponectin was first characterised in mice as a [[mRNA|transcript]] overexpressed in preadipocytes (precursors of fat cells) differentiating into [[adipocytes]]. The human homologue was identified as the most abundant transcript in adipose tissue. Contrary to expectations, despite being produced in [[adipose tissue]], adiponectin was found to be decreased in [[obesity]]. This downregulation has not been fully explained. The gene was localised to chromosome 3p27, a region highlighted as affecting genetic susceptibility to type 2 diabetes and obesity. Supplementation by differing forms of adiponectin were able to improve [[insulin]] control, blood glucose and triglyceride levels in mouse models.


The gene was investigated for variants that predispose to type 2 diabetes. Several [[single nucleotide polymorphism]]s in the coding region and surrounding sequence were identified from several different populations, with varying prevalences, degrees of association and strength of effect on type 2 diabetes.

Adiponectin is a 244-amino-acid-long polypeptide. There are four distinct regions of adiponectin. The first is a short signal squence that targets the hormone for secretion outside the cell; next is a short region that varies between species; the third is a 65-amino acid region with similarity to collagenous proteins; the last is a globular domain. Overall this gene shows similarity to the complement 1Q factors. However, when the 3-dimensional structure of the globular region was determined, a striking similarity to [[Tumor necrosis factor-alpha|TNFα]] was observed, despite unrelated protein sequences.


Adiponectin is secreted into the bloodsteam where it accounts for approximately 0.01% of all plasma protein at around 5-10 μg/mL. Plasma concentrations reveal a [[sexual dimorphism]], with females having higher levels than males. Levels of adiponectin are reduced in diabetics compared to non-diabetics. Weight reduction significantly increases circulating levels.

Adiponectin automatically self-associates into larger structures. Initially, three adiponectin molecules bind together to form a homotrimer. The [[trimer]]s continue to self-associate and form hexamers or dodecamers. Like the plasma concentration, the relative levels of the higher-order structures are sexually dimorphic, where females have increased proportions of the high-molecular weight forms. Questions remain about what the physiologically active forms of the protein are and how they carry out their action.

==Pharmaceutical therapy==
== References ==
Because adiponectin is a novel hormone, no therapy has yet been developed with adiponectin and it may be some years before [[clinical trial]]s commence. One obvious pharmaceutical treatment would be the administration of adiponectin; in mouse models such administration has shown positive effects. Problems to be overcome prior to human administration include establishing what the biologically active molecule is, what role [[post-translational modification]]s have upon the function and associated difficulties in generating biologically active molecules on a large scale. However, this remains a promising area of research for clinical therapy in diseases such as obesity, type 2 diabetes and fatty liver disease.

Adiponectin (also referred to as GBP-28, apM1, AdipoQ and Acrp30) is a protein hormone which is involved in regulating glucose levels as well as fatty acid breakdown. In humans it is encoded by the ADIPOQ gene and it is produced in adipose tissue.[1]

Structure

Adiponectin is a 244-amino-acid-long polypeptide (protein). There are four distinct regions of adiponectin. The first is a short signal sequence that targets the hormone for secretion outside the cell; next is a short region that varies between species; the third is a 65-amino acid region with similarity to collagenous proteins; the last is a globular domain. Overall this protein shows similarity to the complement 1Q factors (C1Q). However, when the 3-dimensional structure of the globular region was determined, a striking similarity to TNFα was observed, despite unrelated protein sequences.[2]

Function

Adiponectin is a protein hormone that modulates a number of metabolic processes, including glucose regulation and fatty acid oxidation.[3] Adiponectin is secreted from adipose tissue (and also from the placenta in pregnancy[4]) into the bloodstream and is very abundant in plasma relative to many hormones. Many studies have found adiponectin to be inversely correlated with body mass index in patient populations.[5] However, a meta analysis was not able to confirm this association in healthy adults.[6] Circulating adiponectin concentrations increase during caloric restriction in animals and humans, such as in patients with anorexia nervosa. This observation is surprising, given that adiponectin is produced by adipose tissue. However, a recent study suggests that adipose tissue within bone marrow, which increases during caloric restriction, contributes to elevated circulating adiponectin in this context.[7]

Transgenic mice with increased adiponectin show reduced adipocyte differentiation and increased energy expenditure associated with mitochondrial uncoupling.[8] The hormone plays a role in the suppression of the metabolic derangements that may result in type 2 diabetes,[5] obesity, atherosclerosis,[3] non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and an independent risk factor for metabolic syndrome.[9] Adiponectin in combination with leptin has been shown to completely reverse insulin resistance in mice.[10]

Adiponectin is secreted into the bloodstream where it accounts for approximately 0.01% of all plasma protein at around 5-10 μg/mL (mg/L). In adults, plasma concentrations are higher in females than males, and are reduced in diabetics compared to non-diabetics. Weight reduction significantly increases circulating concentrations.[11]

Adiponectin automatically self-associates into larger structures. Initially, three adiponectin molecules bind together to form a homotrimer. The trimers continue to self-associate and form hexamers or dodecamers. Like the plasma concentration, the relative levels of the higher-order structures are sexually dimorphic, where females have increased proportions of the high-molecular weight forms. Recent studies showed that the high-molecular weight form may be the most biologically active form regarding glucose homeostasis.[12] High-molecular-weight adiponectin was further found to be associated with a lower risk of diabetes with similar magnitude of association as total adiponectin.[13] However, coronary artery disease has been found to be positively associated with high molecular weight adiponectin, but not with low molecular weight adiponectin.[14]

Adiponectin exerts some of its weight reduction effects via the brain. This is similar to the action of leptin,[15] but the two hormones perform complementary actions, and can have synergistic effects.[clarification needed]

Receptors

Adiponectin binds to a number of receptors. So far, two receptors have been identified with homology to G protein-coupled receptors, and one receptor similar to the cadherin family:[16][17]

These have distinct tissue specificities within the body and have different affinities to the various forms of adiponectin. The receptors affect the downstream target AMP kinase, an important cellular metabolic rate control point. Expression of the receptors is correlated with insulin levels, as well as reduced in mouse models of diabetes, particularly in skeletal muscle and adipose tissue.[18][19]. In 2016, the University of Tokyo announced it was launching an investigation into anonymously made claims of fabricated and falsified data on the identification of AdipoR1 and AdipoR2[20].

Discovery

Adiponectin was first characterised in 1995 in differentiating 3T3-L1 adipocytes (Scherer PE et al.).[21] In 1996 it was characterised in mice as the mRNA transcript most highly expressed in adipocytes[1]. In 2007, adiponectin was identified as a transcript highly expressed in preadipocytes[22] (precursors of fat cells) differentiating into adipocytes.[22][23]

The human homologue was identified as the most abundant transcript in adipose tissue. Contrary to expectations, despite being produced in adipose tissue, adiponectin was found to be decreased in obesity.[3][5][15] This downregulation has not been fully explained. The gene was localised to chromosome 3q27, a region highlighted as affecting genetic susceptibility to type 2 diabetes and obesity. Supplementation by differing forms of adiponectin was able to improve insulin control, blood glucose and triglyceride levels in mouse models.

The gene was investigated for variants that predispose to type 2 diabetes.[15][22][24][25][26][27] Several single nucleotide polymorphisms in the coding region and surrounding sequence were identified from several different populations, with varying prevalences, degrees of association and strength of effect on type 2 diabetes. Berberine, an isoquinoline alkaloid, has been shown to increase adiponectin expression[28] which partly explains its beneficial effects on metabolic disturbances. Mice fed the omega-3 fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) have shown increased plasma adiponectin.[29] Curcumin, capsaicin, gingerol, and catechins have also been found to increase adiponectin expression.[30]

Phylogenetic distribution includes expression in birds[31] and fish.[32]

Metabolic

Adiponectin effects:

Regulation of adiponectin

  • Obesity is associated with decreased adiponectin.
    • The exact mechanism of regulation is unknown, but adiponectin could be regulated by post-translational mechanisms in cells.[33]

Hypoadiponectinemia

A low level of adiponectin is an independent risk factor for developing:

Other

Lower levels of adiponectin are associated with ADHD in adults.[34]

Adiponectin levels were found to be increased in rheumatoid arthritis patients responding to DMARDs or TNF inhibitor therapy.[35]

Exercise induced release of adiponectin increased hippocampal growth and led to antidepressive symptoms in mice.[36]

As a drug target

Circulating levels of adiponectin can indirectly be increased through lifestyle modifications and certain drugs such as statins.[37]

A small molecule adiponectin receptor AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 agonist, AdipoRon, has been reported.[38] In 2016, the University of Tokyo announced it was launching an investigation into anonymously made claims of fabricated and falsified data on AdipoR1, AdipoR2, and AdipoRon[20].

Extracts of sweet potatoes have been reported to increase levels of adiponectin and thereby improve glycemic control in humans.[39] However, a systematic review concluded there is insufficient evidence to support the consumption of sweet potatoes to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus.[40]

Adiponectin is apparently able to cross the blood-brain-barrier.[41] However, conflicting data on this issue exist.[42] Adiponectin has a half-life of 2.5 hours in humans.[43]
