Adipocyte-Specific Over-Expression of Retinol-Binding Protein 4 (RBP4) Causes Hepatic Steatosis in Mice

There is considerable evidence that both retinoids and retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) contribute to the development of liver disease. To understand the basis for this, we generated and studied transgenic mice that express human RBP4 (hRBP4) specifically in adipocytes (adi-hRBP4 mice). When fed a c...
