Biological function summary

Adropin influences glucose homeostasis and fatty acid metabolism. It does not form part of a larger complex but functions as a solitary signaling molecule. The protein impacts cellular processes by increasing glucose oxidation and reducing fatty acid oxidation contributing to energy balance. Studies have demonstrated its role in influencing cardiovascular functions and central nervous systems processes which link it to various metabolic conditions.

Pathways

Adropin is involved in the regulation of energy balance through the insulin signaling pathway and the AMPK pathway. Both pathways help manage glucose uptake and energy expenditure. In the insulin signaling pathway adropin works alongside other proteins like PPARγ and GLUT4 to control glucose levels. Adropin's role in the AMPK pathway relates to cellular energy charge and helps maintain metabolic health by modulating lipid and glucose metabolism.
