“…It was originally isolated as an mRNA species that was up-regulated over 200-fold during the adipocyte conversion process (38). It was also shown subsequently to be up-regulated at the protein level (39) and is secreted in two forms that differ in their glycosylation patterns, 37 and 44 kDa (40); both of these alternative forms of adipsin were identified in our study. Entactin/nidogen was another protein that we identified as an up-regulated protein.…”

“…In AP-18, the early constitutive coexpression of PPARγ and C/EBPα might lead to the induction of expression of aP2 prior to differentiation. Adipsin is found in human plasma and is produced and secreted in vitro by human adipocytes and by differentiated 3T3-L1 cells (Kitagawa et al 1989;Baldo et al 1993), thus making this gene a marker for terminally differentiated adipocytes. Adipsin was not detected in undifferentiated AP-18 cells, however, it was expressed at day…”

“…Interestingly, however, adipocytes secrete a variety of other proteins such as adipsin, complement factors C3 and B, the complement-related protein Acrp30, tumor necrosis factor-␣, leptin, and others (3)(4)(5)(6). Despite the relatively large volume of vesicle traffic in adipocytes, the pathways and molecular components governing exocytosis of these factors remain undescribed.…”
