Hypothesis-generating for G0S2 in hepatic lipid-glucose interplay; leaves open translation to human metabolic disease.
Does adenovirus-mediated overexpression of G0S2 alter hepatic triglyceride metabolism and glucose tolerance in mice?
G0S2 acts as a crucial regulator of hepatic triglyceride metabolism by promoting lipid accumulation while unexpectedly improving glucose tolerance in mice.
Zhang et al. (2013) studied this question.
