A single dose of proanthocyanidins reduced LDL concentration and increased plasma adiponectin after 24 hours.
PMID: Eur J Nutr. 2017 Mar ;56(2):893-900. Epub 2015 Dec 24. PMID: 26704712 Abstract Title: Effects of proanthocyanidin on oxidative stress biomarkers and adipokines in army cadets: a placebo-controlled, double-blind study. Abstract: PURPOSE: The relatively recent advent of polyphenol supplement for exercise studies has been tested in a variety of forms and doses. However, the …
Juçara pulp supplementation improves glucose tolerance in mice.
PMID: Diabetol Metab Syndr. 2016 ;8:8. Epub 2016 Jan 22. PMID: 26807159 Abstract Title: Juçara pulp supplementation improves glucose tolerance in mice. Abstract: BACKGROUND: The consumption of hyperlipidic and hypercaloric diet is considered a major factor to promote obesity and the consumption of food with antioxidant properties, like Juçara (Euterpe edulis Mart), could be a …

Whey protein and high polyphenolic cocoa increase adiponectin levels and result in a lower glucose response compared to that of a low polyphenolic cocoa.
PMID: J Med Food. 2016 Mar ;19(3):219-27. PMID: 26987021 Abstract Title: Cocoa and Whey Protein Differentially Affect Markers of Lipid and Glucose Metabolism and Satiety. Abstract: Food formulation with bioactive ingredients is a potential strategy to promote satiety and weight management. Whey proteins are high in leucine and are shown to decrease hunger ratings and …
Resveratrol could be a prime candidate in ameliorating dysfunctioning adipose tissue induced by inflammatory stimulation.
PMID: PLoS One. 2016 ;11(7):e0159747. Epub 2016 Jul 20. PMID: 27438462 Abstract Title: SILAC-MS Based Characterization of LPS and Resveratrol Induced Changes in Adipocyte Proteomics – Resveratrol as Ameliorating Factor on LPS Induced Changes. Abstract: Adipose tissue inflammation is believed to play a pivotal role in the development obesity-related morbidities such as insulin resistance. However, …
These results suggest that resveratrol prevents diabetic nephropathy by ameliorating lipotoxicity, oxidative stress, apoptosis and endothelial dysfunction via increasing AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 expression.
PMID: J Transl Med. 2016 06 11 ;14(1):176. Epub 2016 Jun 11. PMID: 27286657 Abstract Title: Resveratrol increases AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 expression in type 2 diabetic nephropathy. Abstract: BACKGROUND: Adiponectin has multiple functions including insulin sensitization, anti-inflammation and antiatherogenesis in various organs. Adiponectin activates 5'-adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)α via …
Long-term administration of resveratrol upregulates adiponectin levels and multimerization in type 2 diabetes mice, consequently attenuating myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury partially through APN-AMPK signaling.
PMID: J Cardiovasc Pharmacol. 2016 Oct ;68(4):304-312. PMID: 27332935 Abstract Title: Resveratrol Cardioprotection Against Myocardial Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury Involves Upregulation of Adiponectin Levels and Multimerization in Type 2 Diabetic Mice. Abstract: Downregulation of adiponectin (APN) multimerization is significantly correlated with the aggravation of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (MI/R) injury in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Resveratrol (RSV) upregulates …
