4. Definition
Adiponectin also called adipocyte complement
related protein is a 244 amino acid Protein
secreted from adipose tissues.
What is adipose tissue??
5. 5
Adipose tissue, body fat, or simply fat is a loose
connective tissue.provides structural and metabolic
support. Adipose tissue is often referred to as fat.

Adiponectin is a protein which in human is
encoded by ADIPO gene.
It is involved in regulating glucose levels as
well as fatty acid breakdown.

Top Adiponectin
foods
Pumpkins
Olive oil
Chocolate Surprised?
This tasty food – which is known to make you fat –
stimulates the protein that kills your fat. However,
there is a small secret. You should eat dark chocolate.
Only this kind of chocolate can stimulate adiponectin.

Concentration of
Adiponectin
Adiponectin accounts for approximately 0.01 %
of all plasma protein at around 5- 10 micro g / ml
Plasma concentration :
Females having Higher level than males
Females 16.6 + 5 mg/ml
Males 7.9 + 0.5 mg/ml

How to increase adiponectin
levels naturally
Regular exercise activity is beneficial for those who
are fat. Why?
This is because adiponectin is created by fat cells. It means
that the fatter the person is, the more adiponectin will
be created through exercises.

11. Structure of adiponectin
Adiponectin is a 244- amino acid long polypeptide.
There are 4 distinct regions of adiponectin :
1.The first is short signal sequences that targets the
hormone for secretion outside the cell
2.The short region that varies between species
3.the third is a 65-amino acid region with similarity to
collagenous proteins
4.the last is a globular domain.
12. Full-length adiponectin requires post-translational modifications for activity (e.g.
hydroxylation and glycosylation). Adiponectin molecules are secreted from adipocytes as
trimers (approx90 kDa; the basic unit), low molecular weight hexamers (approx180 kDa)
and high molecular weight isoforms (12–18-mers; >400 kDa). Abbreviations: aa, amino
acids; C, carboxy terminal; HMW, high molecular weight; LMW, low molecular weight; N,
amino terminal.
13. Function of adiponectin
Adiponectin is inversely proportional to obesity,
diabetes and other insulin resistant states
Adiponectin increase the fatty acid oxidation ,
which lowers circulating free fatty acid and
prevents the insulin resistance

Notes
Use the Notes section for delivery notes or to provide additional details for the audience. View these notes in Presentation View during your presentation.
Keep in mind the font size (important for accessibility, visibility, videotaping, and online production)
Coordinated colors
Pay particular attention to the graphs, charts, and text boxes.
Consider that attendees will print in black and white or grayscale. Run a test print to make sure your colors work when printed in pure black and white and grayscale.
Graphics, tables, and graphs
Keep it simple: If possible, use consistent, non-distracting styles and colors.
Label all graphs and tables.
