Gene: ADIPOR2
Official Full Name: adiponectin receptor 2provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: The adiponectin receptors, ADIPOR1 (MIM 607945) and ADIPOR2, serve as receptors for globular and full-length adiponectin (MIM 605441) and mediate increased AMPK (see MIM 602739) and PPAR-alpha (PPARA; MIM 170998) ligand activities, as well as fatty acid oxidation and glucose uptake by adiponectin (Yamauchi et al., 2003 [PubMed 12802337]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]

Adipor2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cell lines engineered to lack the expression of the adiponectin receptor 2 (Adipor2), which is crucial for understanding the physiological and biochemical roles of adiponectin in metabolic regulation and signaling pathways. These cell lines provide a powerful tool for researchers aiming to explore the impact of adiponectin signaling on various cellular processes, including glucose metabolism, inflammation, and insulin sensitivity.
The primary function of Adipor2 involves mediating the effects of adiponectin, a hormone produced by adipose tissue that plays a significant role in glucose homeostasis and lipid metabolism. In the Adipor2 knockout cell lines, researchers can dissect the consequences of the loss of this receptor, allowing for the investigation of downstream signaling cascades such as AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activation and its implications in metabolic diseases like obesity and type 2 diabetes. By analyzing the differences in cellular responses between normal and knockout lines, scientists can gain insights into the physiological role of adiponectin and its receptor in regulating energy balance and inflammatory responses.
The scientific importance of Adipor2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines extends to both basic research and potential clinical applications. They are invaluable in drug discovery processes aimed at treatments targeting metabolic disorders, offering a model for screening compounds that may restore normal signaling pathways disrupted by obesity. Furthermore, they can serve as a novel platform for investigating the mechanisms underlying metabolic diseases, thus informing the development of therapeutic strategies.
One of the major advantages of these knockout cell lines is their specificity and precision, which enhances the reliability of experimental outcomes compared to non-targeted approaches. Unlike other methods, such as pharmacological inhibition, the knockout model allows for clear delineation of the effects attributable to the absence of Adipor2, leading to more robust conclusions about its role.
For researchers and clinicians aiming to advance their studies in metabolic diseases, the Adipor2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines represent a cutting-edge resource that can facilitate significant discoveries and promote better understanding of adipocyte biology and its clinical relevance.
