Retinol-Binding Protein 4 in Twins: Regulatory Mechanisms and Impact of Circulating and Tissue Expression Levels on Insulin Secretion and Action

OBJECTIVE—Retinol-binding protein (RBP) 4 is an adipokine of which plasma levels are elevated in obesity and type 2 diabetes. The aims of the study were to identify determinants of plasma RBP4 and RBP4 mRNA expression in subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) and skeletal muscle and to investigate the as...
