Description
Jian Liang, Mingui Fu, Ester Ciociola and colleagues examined what the protein ENPP1 does as fat cells mature, in PLOS ONE in 2007. How well fat tissue can grow to store extra energy shapes a person's risk for blood sugar and fat problems. ENPP1, also called PC-1, was already known to play a part in that wider picture.
The team focused on adipocyte maturation, the process by which young cells become full fat storing cells. They asked where ENPP1 helps or hinders along the way. The work connects a single protein to the way the body handles stored energy. That link is one piece of the larger story behind obesity and diabetes risk.
