Research Abstract |
We examined the effect of adiponectin, one of adipokine derived from mature adipocyte, on activity of macrophage, and found that administration of adiponectin reduced the lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammatory response. On the other hand, stimulation with adiponectin alone induced cytokine secretion, generation of reactive oxygen species and nitric oxide, followed by apoptotic cell death, in macrophage.
