Anatomical context of FABP4

  • We show that FABP4 protein is expressed within the skeletal muscle fibers and that FABP4 mRNA and protein are more abundant in the endurance trained subjects [12].
  • In this analysis, the accumulation of FABP4 during NIH 3T3-L1 differentiation into adipocytes was detected by generated antibodies, which correlates well with previously published data [10].
  • We have isolated two hybridoma clones that produced antibodies specific for recombinant and native FABP4, as shown by Western blotting and immunoprecipitation [10].
  • Finally, our data indicated that oxLDL regulates expression of ALBP related to two peroxisome proliferator-responsive elements (PPREs) which are located in ALBP promoter region [11].
  • RESULTS: Mean (SE) adiponectin concentrations in breast milk were 13.7 (0.8), range 3.9-30.4 microg/L; AFABP concentrations 26.7 (4.4), range 1.2-137.0 microg/L; EFABP concentrations 18.1 (1.4), range 0.8-47.0 microg/L; and leptin concentrations 0.50 (0.05), range 0-1.37 microg/L [13].
