Circulating adiponectin levels are inversely associated with risk of various obesity-related cancers. However, the effect of adiponectin on carcinogenesis and progression of tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC) remains unknown. We measured serum adiponectin levels in 59 patients with TSCC and 50 healthy controls. Expression of adiponectin and its receptors in paired tumor and paracancerous specimens were determined by immunohistochemical staining (n=37) and western blot (n=30), respectively. Serum adiponectin level was lower in patients than in controls (5.0 +/- 2.4 vs 8.4 +/- 3.5g/mL, P
