Liver-secreted RBP4 does not impair glucose homeostasis in mice [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2018 Retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) is the major transport protein for retinol in blood. Recent evidence from genetic mouse models shows that circulating RBP4 derives exclusively from hepatocytes. Because RBP4 is elevated in obesity and associates with the development of glucose intolerance and insulin resistance, we tested whether a liver-specific ...
