Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Adiponectin, an adipose-specific secretory protein, abundantly exists in bloodstream. Here, we showed that adiponectin accumulates onto specific tissues or cells and thus exhibits organ protective effects. Adiponectin binds to T-cadherin and accumulates onto aorta, heart, and skeletal muscle in which T-cadherin is highly expressed. Present study focused on the accumulation of adiponectin in aorta, because adiponectin has been shown to possess anti-atherosclerotic property. Adiponectin resides on aortic endothelial cells under steady condition. Interestingly, in atherosclerotic plaque lesion, adiponectin exists not only in endothelial cells but also on the surface of smooth muscle cells with synthetic phenotype and monocytes attaching to endothelial cells. Data shown here indicates that adiponectin/T-cadherin system plays a crucial role in maintaining homeostasis in vivo.
