Adipocyte Metabolism in Adipocyte Fatty Acid Binding Protein Knockout (aP2
Mice null for adipocyte fatty acid binding protein ( A FABP) compensate by increasing expression of keratinocyte fatty acid binding protein (KFABP) (Hotamisligil et al. S c i e n c e 274:1377–1379, 1996). In the present s t u d y, AFABP knockout (KO) and wild-type (WT) mice became equally obese on a high-fat diet, as judged by fat pad weights, adipocyte size, and body composition analysis. High...
متن کاملAdiponectin, adipocyte fatty acid binding protein, and epidermal fatty acid binding protein: proteins newly identified in human breast milk.
BACKGROUND Breastfeeding may protect children from developing metabolic syndrome and other diseases later in life. We investigated novel proteins in human breast milk that might play a role in this process. METHODS We used ELISA to measure adiponectin, adipocyte and epidermal fatty acid binding proteins (AFABP, EFABP), and leptin concentrations in human breast milk obtained from 59 mothers 48...
متن کاملSerum adipocyte fatty acid-binding protein in the critically ill
Sepsis due to unabated inflammation is common. Increased production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, free radicals, and eicosanoids has been detected in sepsis and other critical illnesses but could also be due to decreased synthesis and release of anti-inflammatory molecules. Increased serum adipose-fatty acid-binding protein (A-FABP) levels can cause insulin resistance and have been reported in...
متن کاملAdiponectin and adipocyte fatty acid binding protein in the pathogenesis
23 The heart and blood vessels are surrounded by epicardial and perivascular adipose tissues 24 respectively, which play important roles in maintaining cardiovascular homeostasis by secreting 25 a number of biologically active molecules, termed “adipokines”. Many of these adipokines 26 function as an important component of the ‘adipo-cardiovascular axis’ mediating the cross-talk 27 between adip...
متن کاملCirculating Adipocyte Fatty Acid Binding Protein (FABP4) Levels Are Associated with Irisin in the Middle-Aged General Chinese Population
BACKGROUND Adipocyte fatty acid binding protein (FABP4) has been recently characterized as an adipokine that is closely associated with obesity and metabolic syndrome. Irisin, a novel myokine, activates thermogenesis by increasing the transformation of white adipocytes to brown, and it has improved glucose homeostasis in animal models. In this study, we aimed to explore the relationship between...
