- Adipokines, leptin and adiponectin, produced and secreted by adipocytes, are involved in regulating systemic inflammation and may be important targets for interventions to reduce the chronic systemic inflammation linked to some conditions common in #Aging (e.g., atherosclerosis). - Lower leptin levels and higher adiponectin levels in peripheral circulation have been associated with less systemic inflammation. - [1.2]
