Absence of adipose differentiation related protein upregulates hepatic VLDL secretion, relieves hepatosteatosis, and improves whole body insulin resistance in leptin-deficient mice[S]

We previously showed that adipose differentiation related protein (Adfp)-deficient mice display a 60% reduction in hepatic triglyceride (TG) content. In this study, we investigated the role of ADFP in lipid and glucose homeostasis in a genetic obesity model, Lepob/ob mice. We bred Adfp−/− mice with...
