It has a molecular mass of approximately 22 kDa. The liver and adipose tissue mainly express this protein. Betatrophin plays a significant role in energy balance by influencing lipid metabolism making it an important factor in managing metabolic processes in the body.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nBetatrophin regulates the proliferation of pancreatic beta cells which are important for insulin production. It does not form part of a larger protein complex. Its expression can increase in response to metabolic demands linking it closely with the mechanisms of energy utilization and storage.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nBetatrophin interacts closely with lipid metabolism and glucose homeostasis. It influences the insulin signaling pathway and is interconnected with the regulation of triglyceride levels. In the context of these pathways betatrophin collaborates with proteins like ANGPTL3 to modulate lipid breakdown and storage playing an important part in metabolic balance.\u003cbr\u003e\nBetatrophin is associated with Type 2 diabetes and obesity. Its role in inducing pancreatic beta cell proliferation makes it a point of interest for managing insulin resistance a common feature of diabetes. Proteins like ANGPTL4 also interact with betatrophin influencing lipid metabolism and linking to disorders such as obesity. Understanding betatrophin's function and regulation offers potential therapeutic targets for these metabolic diseases.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46850165145769,"sku":"ab168167","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/es\/products\/abcam-ab168167","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
