Adipokine

The adipokines or adipocytokines are a group of cytokines (cell-to-cell signalling proteins) secreted by adipose tissue.

Members include:

leptin (Ob ligand)
adiponectin
resistin
plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1)
tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFα)
visfatin

Their relative roles in modifying appetite, insulin resistance and atherosclerosis are the subjects of intense research, as they may be modifyable causes of morbidity in people with obesity.
