C1q/TNF-Related Protein 3 (CTRP-3) Deficiency of Adipocytes Affects White Adipose Tissue Mass but Not Systemic CTRP-3 Concentrations

CTRP-3 (C1q/TNF-related protein-3) is an adipokine with endocrine and immunological function. The impact of adipocyte CTRP-3 production on systemic CTRP-3 concentrations and on adipocyte biology is unknown. A murine model of adipocyte CTRP-3 knockout (KO) was established (via the <i>Cre/loxP&l...
