Adiponectin administration prevents weight gain and glycemic profile changes in diet-induced obese immune deficient Rag1−/− mice lacking mature lymphocytes

Abstract: Background Obesity is associated with chronic low-grade inflammation leading to insulin resistance and diabetes. Adiponectin is an adipokine that regulates inflammatory responses. The aim of our study was to investigate whether any effects of adiponectin against obesity and insulin-resistance may depend on the adaptive immune system. Methods We treated high-fat-diet fed Rag1−/− mice lacking mature lymphocytes with adiponectin over 7 weeks and investigated alterations in their metabolic outcome and inflammato… Show more

“…Mice in DSS and DA groups received 4% DSS (average molecular weight 5000, Sigma-Aldrich) instead for tap water to establish IBD model [15]. Mice in AG and DA groups were intraperitoneally administrated with full-length adiponectin (2 µg/g, 0.2 ml/mouse) [16]. The control and untreated challenged animals received the same volume of saline alone.…”

“…(29,30) Adiponectin stimulates fatty acid oxidation, decreases inflammation and fibrosis, and improves insulin sensitivity. (31)(32)(33) Adiponectin levels progressively decrease from NAFL to NASH and have been used to develop noninvasive diagnostic tools for staging NAFLD. (34,35) Treatment with CHS-131 increased the circulating levels of adiponectin ~2.4fold, which is similar to the increase observed in humans treated with pioglitazone.…”

“…It is noteworthy that transgenic mice, which were morbidly obese (MO), had increased levels of circulating full-length adiponectin and showed a constriction in systemic inflammation and an improved metabolic profile [ 26 ]. Treatment with adiponectin reduces body weight and blood glucose levels in obese mice fed a high fat diet [ 27 28 ]. This is achieved by improving insulin sensitivity [ 27 ], increasing fat oxidation and regulating inflammatory response mainly through innate rather than adaptive immune system mechanisms [ 28 ].…”
