Adiponectin is a negative regulator of antigen‐activated T cells
2 May 2011
Abstract excerpt
Adiponectin (APN), a cytokine constitutively produced in fat tissue, has been shown to exert anti-inflammatory effects in various disease models. While the influence of APN on monocytic cells has been extensively studied in vitro, little is known about its role in T cells. In this study, we show that while <10% of human peripheral blood T cells express adiponectin receptors (AdipoRs) on their surface, most T...
