Protein sorting gone wrong--VPS10P domain receptors in cardiovascular and metabolic diseases.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Adiponectin is one of several important, metabolically active cytokines secreted from adipose tissue. Epidemiologic studies have associated low circulating levels of this adipokine with multiple metabolic disorders including obesity, insulin resistance, type II diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. To investi...
