Circulating Lipocalin-2 and Retinol-Binding Protein 4 Are Associated with Intima-Media Thickness and Subclinical Atherosclerosis in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes

BACKGROUND: The lipocalin family proteins, including lipocalin-2 and retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4), are adipokines closely associated with obesity-related metabolic disorders.
