| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
HMGB1 might be an adipocytokine that acts as an innate pro-inflammatory mediator in white adipose tissue (WAT) of patients with obesity, which may be associated with insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome. Conversely, adiponectin protects against HMGB1-induced adipose tissue inflammation by partially suppressing HMGB1 release from adipocytes.
