Endothelial FABP4 constitutes the majority of basal circulating hormone levels and regulates lipolysis-driven insulin secretion
2022-10-17
Abstract excerpt
Fatty acid binding protein 4 (FABP4) is a lipid chaperone secreted from adipocytes upon stimulation of lipolysis. Circulating FABP4 levels strongly correlate with body mass index and obesity-related pathologies in experimental models and humans. While adipocytes have been presumed to be the major source of hormonal FABP4, this question has not been addressed definitively in vivo . We generated mice with FABP4 del...
