Research Abstract |
The longitudinal changes in adiponectin multimer levels differ in preterm and term infants. The ratio of high-molecular-weight adiponectin to total adiponectin in preterm infants at term- and 6 months-equivalent age was significantly lower than that in term infants at corresponding time points. Postnatal growth including fat tissue accumulation may contribute to adiponectin increases from birth to term-equivalent age, but it was not associated with the ratio of high-molecular-weight adiponectin changes in preterm infants. Further studies are needed to identify the factors that alter adiponectin multimer levels in preterm infants and determine whether they maybe associated with a higher risk of insulin resistance in the future.
