Adiponectin added into the plasma of healthy probands does not affect platelet aggregability.

ABSTRACT

Six healthy non-obese probands without medical therapy and history of disease were tested. In all of them platelet aggregability with addition of human recombinant adiponectin in different concentrations (100; 75; 50 and 25 ng/l) were measured. It is concluded that increased level of adiponectin has no significant antiaggregation effect on platelets from individuals without hypoadiponectinemia.
