Disruption of Adiponectin Causes Insulin Resistance and Neointimal Formation

Abstract: The adipocyte-derived hormone adiponectin has been proposed to play important roles in the regulation of energy homeostasis and insulin sensitivity, and it has been reported to exhibit putative antiatherogenic properties in vitro. In this study we generated adiponectin-deficient mice to directly investigate whether adiponectin has a physiological protective role against diabetes and atherosclerosis in vivo. Heterozygous adiponectin-deficient (adipo ؉/؊ ) mice showed mild insulin resistance, while homozygous ad… Show more

“…Original adiponectin-deficient mice (C57BL/6 and 129/Sv-mixed background) 63 were backcrossed with C57BL/6 mice more than seven times. Mice were 7-10 weeks old for all experiments.…”

“…In brief, after an overnight fast and the collection of baseline samples, Dextrose 0.3 g/kg was administered intravenously, followed 20 min later by the intravenous infusion of insulin 0.03 U/kg (Humulin R; Eli Lilly, Indianapolis, IN, USA). Samples were collected for insulin and glucose at 2, 3, 4, 5,6,8,10,12,14,19,22,23,24,25,27,30,40,50,60,70,80, 90, 100, 120, 140, 160 and 180 min following the dextrose and analysed using the Bergman's Minimal Model, a computer-based method to assess plasma insulin and glucose dynamics during an IVGTT. The minimum model for glucose disposal and insulin dynamics yields assessments of insulin secretion and sensitivity, including the insulin sensitivity index (S I ) and the glucose effectiveness index (S G ) also known as insulin-independent glucose clearance.…”

“…Persons with type 2 diabetes have lower levels of adiponectin than controls, independent of BMI [7,11]. Heterozygous adiponectin-deficient mice exhibit mild insulin resistance, while homozygous deficiency is associated with more significant glucose intolerance and increased likelihood of diabetes, which can be reversed following adiponectin administration [5,10,12].…”

“…We previously demonstrated that adiponectin-deficient (Adipo −/− ) mice exhibit insulin resistance [10], but that after glucose loading the plasma insulin levels tended to be lower in Adipo −/− mice than in wild-type mice, suggesting that adiponectin may induce insulin secretion [10]. The adiponectin receptors ADIPOR1 and ADIPOR2 have recently been cloned [11] and identified in human and rat pancreatic beta cells [12].…”
