| Research Abstract |
In order to apply adipocyte-derived biologically active molecules to tissue engineering, we investigated effect of adipocytokine on periodontal tissues. It was demonstrated that adiponectin, abundant adipocytokine, influenced to the tissues directly, and the failure of adiponectin action suppressed the progression of osteoblast differentiation. Therefore, low plasma adiponectin levels may cause not only insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome but also delay of bone formation.
