Adiponectin – journey from an adipocyte secretory protein to biomarker of the metabolic syndrome
Abstract
Adiponectin is an adipocyte-derived hormone that was discovered in 1995. Unlike leptin, which was identified around the same time, the clinical relevance of adiponectin remained obscure for a number of years.
