| 1 | Adiponectin is involved in the protective effect of DHEA against metabolic risk in aged rats. | Dehydroepiandrosterone | adiponectin, C1Q and collagen domain containing | Rattus norvegicus |
| 2 | The DHEA group had lower body fat and n-6/n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) ratios than the control group (P<0.01), and the same trends were observed for serum cholesterol, triglycerides and HOMA index; in contrast, adiponectin expression in adipose tissue increased in DHEA-treated rats (P<0.05). | Dehydroepiandrosterone | adiponectin, C1Q and collagen domain containing | Rattus norvegicus |
| 3 | Our results then suggest that adiponectin is involved in the protective effect of DHEA against metabolic risk demonstrated in the present work. | Dehydroepiandrosterone | adiponectin, C1Q and collagen domain containing | Rattus norvegicus |
