Function

Important adipokine involved in the control of fat metabolism and insulin sensitivity, with direct anti-diabetic, anti-atherogenic and anti-inflammatory activities. Stimulates AMPK phosphorylation and activation in the liver and the skeletal muscle, enhancing glucose utilization and fatty-acid combustion. Antagonizes TNF-alpha by negatively regulating its expression in various tissues such as liver and macrophages, and also by counteracting its effects. Inhibits endothelial NF-kappa-B signaling through a cAMP-dependent pathway. May play a role in cell growth, angiogenesis and tissue remodeling by binding and sequestering various growth factors with distinct binding affinities, depending on the type of complex, LMW, MMW or HMW.

Notes

ab226122 is the carrier-free version of Anti-Adiponectin antibody [EPR3218] ab133347.

Mouse, Rat: We have preliminary internal testing data to indicate this antibody may not react with these species. Please contact us for more information.

Our RabMAb® technology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies. For details on our patents, please refer to RabMAb® patents.

This product is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, which offers several advantages including:

  • - High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
  • - Improved sensitivity and specificity
  • - Long-term security of supply
  • - Animal-free batch production

For more information, read more on recombinant antibodies.

Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. The carrier-free buffer and high concentration allow for increased conjugation efficiency.

This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.

Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with 1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

This product is compatible with the Maxpar® Antibody Labeling Kit from Fluidigm, without the need for antibody preparation. Maxpar® is a trademark of Fluidigm Canada Inc.

Activity summary

Adiponectin also known as ADIPOQ or adipocyte complement-related protein of 30 kDa (Acrp30) is a 30 kDa protein that plays a significant mechanical role in energy homeostasis. Adiponectin is secreted predominantly by adipose tissue and circulates in the blood. This protein forms various multimeric structures including low-molecular-weight medium-molecular-weight and high-molecular-weight forms each with distinct biological functions. Its expression in adipose tissue links it closely to metabolic processes and functions related to fat storage and energy balance.

Biological function summary

Adiponectin influences glucose regulation and fatty acid oxidation. It acts as a hormone with several metabolic roles including anti-diabetic anti-atherogenic and anti-inflammatory properties. Adiponectin participates in forming a complex with other proteins such as AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 which are receptors facilitating signal transduction. The interaction of adiponectin with its receptors leads to the induction of several lipid and glucose metabolism pathways important for maintaining cellular energy balance.

Pathways

Many regulatory cascades are influenced by adiponectin. This protein is integral to the AMPK signaling pathway and the PPAR signaling pathway. In the AMPK pathway adiponectin enhances insulin sensitivity and stimulates oxidation of fatty acids in muscle tissue. Through the PPAR pathway it influences lipid metabolism and storage. Adiponectin interacts with key proteins such as leptin and resistin coordinating various metabolic pathways to balance energy and glucose levels making it a critical factor in metabolic regulation.

Associated diseases and disorders

Reduced levels of adiponectin associate with conditions like type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Lower circulating adiponectin concentrations correlate with obesity leading to increased insulin resistance and higher risk of type 2 diabetes. In cardiovascular disease this protein's role links to its anti-inflammatory properties and ability to decrease the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells. Adiponectin also interacts with proteins like cytokines that play a role in these conditions affecting the body’s inflammatory responses and metabolic processes highlighting its importance in health and disease management.
