Biochem/physiol Actions

AdipoRon is an adiponectin agonist that binds to and activates adiponectin receptors AdipoR1 and AdipoR2, activating AMPK and PPAR-α pathways, and ameliorating insulin resistance and glucose intolerance in mice fed a high-fat diet in a manner similar to adiponectin itself. AdipoRon did not affect body weight, but did increase the expression of genes involved in fatty-acid oxidation, decreased tissue triglyceride content, and prolonged the shortened lifespan of db/db mice.

Oral administration of adipoRon reduced postischemic oxidative stress showing lower expression of NADPH (Nicotinamide adenine diphosphate) oxidase and superoxide production in mouse model. Hence, adipoRon might be considered as a cardioprotective molecule.
