Adropin, a recently described endogenous neuroendocrine peptide, has been suggested to play a critical role in modulating normal physiological processes and maintaining metabolic homeostasis. Adropin (10 ng/mL) caused a marked 10-fold increase in endothelial cell migration and proliferation and significantly increased capillary-like endothelial cell sprouting and tube formation (p<0.001).
In mice,the liver produces a protein called adropin, which rises in response to high-fat foods and falls after fasting. The protein seems to play a role in governing the activity of other metabolic genes, particularly those involved in the production of lipids from carbohydrates. Studies of the protein in obese animals suggest that it also plays a role in insulin response and in preventing the buildup of fat in the liver.
