Short description: Cell surface receptors for adiponectin

The adiponectin receptors (AdipoRs) include the following two receptors, which are bound and activated by adiponectin:

They are members of the progestin and adipoQ receptor (PAQR) family.[1]

In 2016, the University of Tokyo announced that it would launch an investigation into claims of fabrication of AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 identification data, as accused by an anonymous person/group called Ordinary researchers.[2]
