A 7-d exercise program increases high-molecular weight adiponectin in obese adults
Research output: Contribution to journal › Journal article › Research › peer-review
High-molecular weight (HMW) adiponectin is the biologically active form of adiponectin and is related to enhanced insulin sensitivity and metabolic function. Previously, we found that 7 d of exercise improves insulin sensitivity in obese subjects; however, whether short-term exercise training affects HMW adiponectin in obese persons is unknown.
