Glitazones increase the secretion of the adipocyte-clerived hormone adiponectin. Furthermore, the gastric signal peptide ghrelin is known to suppress adiponectin expression in adipocyte cell culture models. It is not known whether the increase in adiponectin during glitazone therapy is due to a suppression of ghrelin levels, a decrease of resistin concentrations or an amelioration of glucose control. In 10 patients (age 71 +/- 9 yr, body mass index 29.9 +/- 3.6 kg/m(2), HbA(1c) 6.9 +/- 0.5%) with Type 2 diabetes, who had already been treated with sulfonylureas, we additionally initiated a pioglitazone therapy (30 mg/day) for 12 weeks. To investigate the pioglitazone effect independently of blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA(1c)) was kept unchanged by reducing the daily dose of sulfonylurea if necessary. Ghrelin concentration [radioimmunoassay (RIA), Phoenix Pharmaceuticals, Mountain View, CA, USA], adiponectin levels [enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), Biovenclor, Heidelberg, Germany] as well as resistin concentrations (ELISA, Linco Research, St. Charles, MO, USA) were measured before and after pioglitazone. Glucose control remained unchanged within the 12-week pioglitazone therapy (HbA(1c) 6.9 +/- 0.5% before vs 6.8 +/- 0.6% after pioglitazone) while body weight increased from 86.6 +/- 9.2 to 88.0 +/- 9.4 kg (p < 0.05), and insulin concentration decreased from 19.6 +/- 5.7 to 10.1 +/- 11.6 mu U/ml (p < 0.05). Adiponectin concentration increased in all patients from 7.70 +/- 2.47 to 23.33 +/- 8.28 pg/ml (p < 0.01), while resistin concentrations tended to decrease (by 15%; p=0.059). However, ghrelin remained unchanged during therapy. No correlations were observed either between ghrelin, resistin, insulin and adiponectin, or between body weight and hormone plasma levels. The increase in adiponectin levels during pioglitazone therapy seems to be at least partly independent of blood glucose and insulin concentration as well as of ghrelin levels, and it was not associated with a decrease in resistin concentrations.
