Adiponectin (ADP) is expressed within adipose tissues; the main functions involve increasing insulin resistance. This is demonstrated by a decrease in the levels present in plasma for individuals with coronary artery disease, obesity and type 2 diabetes. Adiponectin is not just found in humans but also in rodents.
