Research Abstract

Influence of liver producing hormones, termed as hepatokine, on life style diseases such as diabetes were studied. Selenoprotein P was published as the first hepatokine in Cell Metabolism 2010 from our laboratory. Selenoprotein P induces insulin resistance coordinated with adipose and muscle tissues (published in Pros One 2012, and 2014, respectively). Expression of Selenoprotein was decreased by the treatment of metformin (J Biol Chem 2014). Another hepatokine, leukocyte cell-derived chemotaxin 2, was newly identified (Diabetes 2014).
