- Mimics serum adiponectin by forming high molecular weight (HMW) and hexameric species
- Expressed in mammalian cell line to guarantee proper post-translational modifications
- High purity and low endotoxin content to ensure experimental success
Product Details

Figure 1: Bioactivity of rmsAdiponectin.
Method: 2 groups of 4 mice each were injected with PBS (vehicle), rmAdiponectin (Prod. No.
ALX-522-059) and rhACRP30
headless (tail adiponectin) (Prod. No.
ALX-203-002) at 1µg/g body weight as a tail vein injection. Subsequently, serum glucose levels were monitored over the time indicated by Trinder assay. Plotted is the average of 4 mice. rmAdiponectin represses hepatic glucose production, so serum glucose levels decrease until counter-regulatory mechanisms (i.e. glucagon) become effective. rhACRP30
headless demonstrated no significant bioactivity in terms of reduction of serum glucose compared to wildtype in this
in vivo assay."
Figure 2: Superdex 200 analysis of Adiponectin (mouse) (recombinant) (Prod. No.
ALX-522-059) produced in mammalian cells (HEK 293). The different forms of adiponectin are indicated by arrows: High molecular weight (HMW; representing 12-18-mer species) and hexamer. The red arrow indicates where should elute the trimeric state of adiponectin.
