Mice lacking acylation stimulating protein (ASP) have delayed postprandial triglyceride clearance
Acylation stimulating protein (ASP) is a 76 amino acid fragment of the third component of complement (C3) which is generated by the interaction of adipsin and factor B with C3. In vitro studies have shown that ASP can markedly increase triglyceride synthesis in adipocytes. To test the ASP pathway in...
