Changes in adiponectin level and fat distribution in patients with type 2 diabetes

Abstract: In postmenopausal women with newly diagnosed T2DM, lifestyle modifications alone or combined with metformin produced comparable changes in adiponectin levels. Weight reduction in patients treated with metformin was associated with significant decrease in %BF but not in regional fat depots.

“…Also Mendelian randomization studies do not support a causal role for reduced circulating adiponectin levels in T2DM (46). Studies reporting decreased adiponectin levels in T2DM in adults (17,24,47,48) or children (15,18,(31)(32)(33)(34)49) were based on normal weight controls and not age-, gender-, and BMI-matched controls as in our study explaining the difference to our study.…”

“…With rosiglitazone treatment at 4 or 8 mg/day, adiponectin levels increase by ∼50–200% after 3–6 months in adults with type 2 diabetes, with improvements in glycemic control and insulin sensitivity (3032). With respect to metformin treatment in adults with type 2 diabetes, most studies (33,34)—but not all (35,36)—show no change in adiponectin levels. In the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP), however, metformin intervention in impaired glucose tolerant adults was associated with a significant increase in adiponectin from baseline to year 1 (24).…”

“…It is also very interesting to find that type 2 diabetics show a significantly decreased irisin level compared with control and PCOS subjects when exclude androgen‐driven lean mass factor. Type 2 diabetes is linked to more visceral fat, less thigh subcutaneous fat and more fat infiltration in muscle compared with persons without diabetes . Certainly, we should do more exploring on these primary results.…”
