Regulation of adipolin

Obesity is associated with adipose tissue inflammation. These conditions reduce transcript levels of adipolin by suppressing KLF15 expression. Obese states also facilitate the cleavage of adipolin through upregulation of furin in adipose tissue. Thus, obesity leads to reduction of the full form of adipolin, contributing to the progression of metabolic dysfunction.
