Abstract

The article discusses research on the role of a secreted protein, acidic, cysteine-rich (SPARC) glycoprotein in the growth of adipose-tissue and inflammation and insulin resistance. It references the study "Regulation of the Fibrosis and Angiogenesis Promoter SPARC/Osteonectin in Human Adipose Tissue by Weight Change, Leptin, Insulin and Glucose," by K. Kos et al in a 2009 issue of "Diabetes." The study cited the ability of SPARC to prevent adipogenesis by limiting the relationship between preadipocytes and extracellular matrix (ECM) with fibronectin.
