| Research Abstract |
Cystatin C was identified as an adiponectin binding protein. In macrophage, adiponectin regulated vascular endothelial growth factor-C. In vascular endothelial cell culture, cystatin C abrogated the anti-inflammatory effects of adiponectin. The clearance rate of adiponectin was decreased by cystatin C in mouse model. Although adiponectin has anti-atherogenic properties, hyper-adiponectinemia in renal failure is associated with increased risk of atherosclerosis. The present findings suggest that the high cystatin C level of renal failure impaired vascular metabolism through the direct binding with adiponectin.
