Factors Determining the Risk of the Metabolic Syndrome: Is There a Central Role for Adiponectin? European Journal of Clinical Nutrition (2013) 67, 485–491 & 2013 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 0954-3007/13 www.nature.com/ejcn REVIEW Factors determining the risk of the metabolic syndrome: is there a central role for adiponectin? EK Calton, VS Miller and MJ Soares BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The pathogenesis of the metabolic syndrome (MetS) is not well understood. This review is based on the hypothesis that both traditional and emerging risk factors act through adiponectin. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: We conducted a search of the literature using prominent electronic databases and search terms that included in combination: adiponectin, diet, dietary patterns, exercise, metabolic rate, MetS and testosterone. Articles were restricted to studies conducted on adult humans, reported in English and within the time period 2000–2012. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: Both traditional and emerging risk factors associated with the MetS show some evidence of exerting their influence through adiponectin. High-quality randomized controlled trials that alter adiponectin levels are required to further corroborate this hypothesis.

Adiponectin circulates in blood as high-molecular, middle-molecular, and low-molecular weight isoforms. Numerous studies have demonstrated its insulin-sensitizing, anti-atherogenic, and anti-inflammatory effects. Additionally, decreased serum levels of adiponectin is associated with chronic inflammation of metabolic disorders including Type 2 diabetes, obesity, and atherosclerosis. However, recent studies showed that adiponectin could have pro-inflammatory roles in patients with autoimmune diseases. In particular, its high serum level was positively associated with inflammation severity and pathological progression in rheumatoid arthritis, chronic kidney disease, and inflammatory bowel disease. Thus, adiponectin seems to have both pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory effects. This indirectly indicates that adiponectin has different physiological roles according to an isoform and effector tissue. Knowledge on the specific functions of isoforms would help develop potential anti-inflammatory therapeutics to target specific adiponectin isoforms against metabolic disorders and autoimmune diseases.

A direct effect of adipose tissue on bone turnover through leptin production has been suggested, but such an association has not been explored in kidney transplant recipients. Design, setting, participants, & measurements: This study examined associations of serum leptin with PTH and with biomarkers of bone turnover (serum beta crosslaps [CTX, a marker of bone resorption] and osteocalcin [OC, a marker of bone formation]) in 978 kidney transplant recipients. Associations were examined in multivariable regression models. Path analyses were used to determine if the association of leptin with bone turnover is independent of PTH.

    THE PHYSIOLOGICAL ACTIONS OF ADIPONECTIN IN CENTRAL AUTONOMIC NUCLEI: IMPLICATIONS FOR THE INTEGRATIVE CONTROL OF ENERGY HOMEOSTASIS by Ted Donald Hoyda A thesis submitted to the Department of Physiology In conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Queen‟s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada (September, 2009) Copyright © Ted Donald Hoyda, 2009 ABSTRACT Adiponectin regulates feeding behavior, energy expenditure and autonomic function through the activation of two receptors present in nuclei throughout the central nervous system, however much remains unknown about the mechanisms mediating these effects. Here I investigate the actions of adiponectin in autonomic centers of the hypothalamus (the paraventricular nucleus) and brainstem (the nucleus of the solitary tract) through examining molecular, electrical, hormonal and physiological consequences of peptidergic signalling. RT-PCR and in situ hybridization experiments demonstrate the presence of AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 mRNA in the paraventricular nucleus. Investigation of the electrical consequences following receptor activation in the paraventricular nucleus indicates that magnocellular-oxytocin cells are homogeneously inhibited while magnocellular-vasopressin neurons display mixed responses. Single cell RT-PCR analysis shows oxytocin neurons express both receptors while vasopressin neurons express either both receptors or one receptor. Co-expressing oxytocin and vasopressin neurons express neither receptor and are not affected by adiponectin. Median eminence projecting corticotropin releasing hormone neurons, brainstem projecting oxytocin neurons, and thyrotropin releasing hormone neurons are all depolarized by adiponectin. Plasma adrenocorticotropin hormone concentration is increased following intracerebroventricular injections of adiponectin. I demonstrate that the nucleus of the solitary tract, the primary cardiovascular regulation site of the medulla, expresses mRNA for AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 and mediates adiponectin induced hypotension.

  • Pathophysiology of Gestational Diabetes Mellitus: the Past, the Present and the Future
    6 Pathophysiology of Gestational Diabetes Mellitus: The Past, the Present and the Future Mohammed Chyad Al-Noaemi1 and Mohammed Helmy Faris Shalayel2 1Al-Yarmouk College, Khartoum, 2National College for Medical and Technical Studies, Khartoum, Sudan 1. Introduction It is just to remember that “Pathophysiology” refers to the study of alterations in normal body function (physiology and biochemistry) which result in disease. E.g. changes in the normal thyroid hormone level causes either hyper or hypothyroidism. Changes in insulin level as a decrease in its blood level or a decrease in its action will cause hyperglycemia and finally diabetes mellitus. Scientists agreed that gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a condition in which women without previously diagnosed diabetes exhibit high blood glucose levels during pregnancy. From our experience most women with GDM in the developing countries are not aware of the symptoms (i.e., the disease will be symptomless). While some of the women will have few symptoms and their GDM is most commonly diagnosed by routine blood examinations during pregnancy which detect inappropriate high level of glucose in their blood samples. GDM should be confirmed by doing fasting blood glucose and oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), according to the WHO diagnostic criteria for diabetes. A decrease in insulin sensitivity (i.e. an increase in insulin resistance) is normally seen during pregnancy to spare the glucose for the fetus. This is attributed to the effects of placental hormones. In a few women the physiological changes during pregnancy result in impaired glucose tolerance which might develop diabetes mellitus (GDM). The prevalence of GDM ranges from 1% to 14% of all pregnancies depending on the population studied and the diagnostic tests used.

  • IL-33, Diet-Induced Obesity, and Pulmonary Responses to Ozone David I
    Kasahara and Shore Respiratory Research (2020) 21:98 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12931-020-01361-9 RESEARCH Open Access IL-33, diet-induced obesity, and pulmonary responses to ozone David I. Kasahara and Stephanie A. Shore* Abstract Background: Obesity augments pulmonary responses to ozone. We have reported that IL-33 contributes to these effects of obesity in db/db mice. The purpose of this study was to determine whether IL-33 also contributes to obesity-related changes in the response to ozone in mice with diet-induced obesity. Methods: Male wildtype C57BL/6 mice and mice deficient in ST2, the IL-33 receptor, were placed on chow or high fat diets for 12 weeks from weaning. Because the microbiome has been implicated in obesity-related changes in the pulmonaryresponsetoozone,micewereeitherhousedwithothermiceofthesamegenotype(samehoused)orwith mice of the opposite genotype (cohoused). Cohousing transfers the gut microbiome from one mouse to its cagemates. Results: Diet-induced increases in body mass were not affected by ST2 deficiency or cohousing. In same housed mice, ST2 deficiency reduced ozone-induced airway hyperresponsiveness and neutrophil recruitment in chow-fed but not HFD- fed mice even though ST2 deficiency reduced bronchoalveolar lavage IL-5 in both diet groups. In chow-fed mice, cohousing abolished ST2-related reductions in ozone-induced airway hyperresponsiveness and neutrophil recruitment, butinHFD-fedmice,noeffectofcohousingontheseresponsestoozonewasobserved.Inchow-fedmice,ST2 deficiency and cohousing caused changes in the gut microbiome. High fat diet-feeding caused marked changes in the gut microbiome and overrode both ST2-related and cohousing-related differences in the gut microbiome observed in chow-fed mice.
