Abstract

Adiponectin is an adipose-derived hormone that plays an important role in regulating insulin sensitivity in rodents. However, little is known regarding the effect of adiponectin on metabolism in human skeletal muscle. Therefore, we examined whether the globular head of adiponectin, gAcrp30, acutely activates fatty acid oxidation and glucose uptake in isolated human skeletal muscle. Furthermore, we aimed to determine whether these effects would differ in muscle from lean versus obese individuals. Treatment with gAcrp30 (2.5 μg/ml) increased fatty acid oxidation in lean muscle (70%, P < 0.0001) and to a lesser extent in obese muscle (30%, P < 0.01). In the absence of insulin, gAcrp30 increased glucose uptake 37% in lean (P < 0.05) and 33% in obese muscle (P < 0.05). Combined exposure of insulin and gAcrp30 demonstrated an additive effect on glucose uptake in lean and obese individuals, but this effect was reduced by 50% in obese muscle (P < 0.05). These metabolic effects were attributable to an increase in AMP-activated protein kinase-α1 (AMPKα1) and AMPKα2 activity. However, in obese muscle the activation of AMPKα2 by gAcrp30 was blunted. This study provides evidence that gAcrp30 plays a role in regulating fatty acid and glucose metabolism in human skeletal muscle. However, the effects are blunted in obesity, indicating the possible development of adiponectin resistance.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
