Is expression of adiponectin and its receptors altered in epithelial ovarian tumors and ascites-derived ovarian cancer cell lines?
Expression of adiponectin in ovarian tumors and in metastatic ovarian tumor cells is likely to affect cellular metabolism and proliferation through activating AdipoR1 and/or AdipoR2. Plasma adiponectin levels may not be predictive of advanced stages of ovarian tumor in the chicken model.
Our findings suggest that active cognitive reserve is a buffer for functional limitation across disability groupings. Cognitive reserve may provide an alternative lens for thinking about the disease course of MS, providing a longer "runway" until disability accrual through cortical remodeling. Loss of cognitive reserve may explain the onset of progressive disease in MS.
