PITTSBURGH, Jan. 20 – Reduced blood concentrations of a protein called adiponectin appear to indicate a significant risk of cardiovascular disease in one of the first studies to focus on risk of the ...

Diabetes has become a leading cause of morbidity and mortality and the prevention and management of diabetes is now a major global health concern. While recent studies link obesity with diabetes, ...

Researchers investigated the role between adiponectin and leptin in obesity-related carcinogenesis. Their findings suggest that the protein hormone adiponectin has potential for inhibiting the ...

There is a twist in Gujarati genetic tale which makes us more susceptible to diabetes especially when we have piled up the kilos. A study, for the first time, has led scientists to identify the exact ...

Abstract and Introduction Research Design and Methods Results Discussion References We thank Jana Böhnke, Iris Gottschalk, Gritt Stoffels, and Anke Strauß for assistance in the clinical study. We also ...

Protein adiponectin could ward off cancer and cardiovascular disease. A compound that mimics the effects of adiponectin has been developed in US. It was the collaborative effort of an international ...

A rare genetic mutation could help explain why some families are more susceptible to diabetes and kidney failure according to a new study led by Marcus Pezzolesi, PhD. Photo credit: Kristan Jacobsen A ...

A genetic variation identified in a group of families who are prone to diabetes and kidney failure increases the levels of a type of fat, called ceramides. Therapeutics that prevent this change could ...
