A mathematical model of adiponectin resistance.

Adiponectin is often associated with obesity. The obese body displays a significant decrease in adiponectin expression and plasma levels. Higher adiponectin also results in lower expression of pro-inflammatory cytokine TNF-α from adipose tissue. Low adiponectin levels show to exist significantly in the case of insulin resistance. Adiponectin levels are found to be significantly lower in people with type 2 diabetes. In this paper, we proposed a mathematical model of the adiponectin - adiponectin receptors framework, based on the assumption that the secretion of adiponectin is inversely proportional to fat mass. Here, we show that an increase in obesity or adiposity results in a decrease in the adiponectin plasma level, which contributes to the development of adiponectin resistance. In this model, we have used different parameters and their default values, to perform a simulation based on the model. Further, experimentally, the plasma adiponectin concentration is ( ≈  0.015) significantly lowered in the diabetic group compared to the non-diabetic group. In this model, we have obtained the plasma adiponectin concentration level ( ≈  0.014) in the simulation process. So this model is only differing from 1 × 10-3 significant digits. We have achieved the degree of accuracy of adiponectin resistance is 93.33%. Therefore, these advances offer novel insights into the mathematical approach.
