Abstract

Adipocytokines are polypeptides or proteins that are secreted by fat cells with a wide range of biological activities. Adiponectin is a fatty cytokine with insulin sensitization. It possesses the function of anti- diabetes, atherosclerosis and anti-inflammation. Adiponectin may participate in regulating the development of cognitive impairment, which is considered as a new regulatory factor for cognitive impairment.

脂肪细胞因子是一类由脂肪细胞分泌、具有广泛的生物活性的多肽或蛋白质。脂联素是一种具有胰岛素增敏作用的脂肪细胞因子,具有抗糖尿病、抗动脉粥样硬化和抗炎等作用。脂联素可参与并调控着认知障碍的发生、发展,被认为是一个新的认知障碍的调节因子。.
