Extra Details:
Adipocyte-secreted protein (adipokine) that regulates adipogenesis; metabolism and inflammation through activation of the chemokine-like receptor 1 (CMKLR1). Its other ligands include G protein-coupled receptor 1 (GPR1) and chemokine receptor-like 2 (CCRL2). Positively regulates adipocyte differentiation; modulates the expression of adipocyte genes involved in lipid and glucose metabolism and might play a role in angiogenesis; a process essential for the expansion of white adipose tissue. Also acts as a proinflammatory adipokine; causing an increase in secretion of proinflammatory and prodiabetic adipokines; which further impair adipose tissue metabolic function and have negative systemic effects including impaired insulin sensitivity; altered glucose and lipid metabolism; and a decrease in vascular function in other tissues. Can have both pro- and anti-inflammatory properties depending on the modality of enzymatic cleavage by different classes of proteases. Acts as a chemotactic factor for leukocyte populations expressing CMKLR1; particularly immature plasmacytoid dendritic cells; but also immature myeloid DCs; macrophages and natural killer cells. Exerts an anti-inflammatory role by preventing TNF/TNFA-induced VCAM1 expression and monocytes adhesion in vascular endothelial cells. The effect is mediated via inhibiting activation of NF-kappa-B and CRK/p38 through stimulation of AKT1/NOS3 signaling and nitric oxide production. Its dual role in inflammation and metabolism might provide a link between chronic inflammation and obesity; as well as obesity-related disorders such as type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Exhibits an antimicrobial function in the skin.
