Serum adiponectin is positively associated with lung function in young adults, independent of obesity: The CARDIA study
RATIONALE: Adipose tissue produces adiponectin, an anti-inflammatory protein. Adiponectin deficiency in mice is associated with abnormal post-natal alveolar development. OBJECTIVE: We hypothesized that lower serum adiponectin concentrations are associated with lower lung function in humans, independ...
