- The PPAR-γ agonist, rosiglitazone, restores circulating adiponectin levels in mice with lung cancer.- Rosiglitazone preserves skeletal muscle and adipose tissue mass in mice with lung cancer.- The preservation of muscle mass with rosiglitazone is associated with increases in AMPK and AKT activity.- Stimulation of adiponectin signaling increases AMPK activity, anabolic signaling, and protein synthesis in muscle cell culture.
