MeSH Heading: Perilipin-2
Tree Number(s): D12.776.157.464.500.750
Unique ID: D000070780
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D000070780
Scope Note: A perilipin that is expressed by many different cell types. It binds FATTY ACIDS and CHOLESTEROL, stabilizes TRIGLYCERIDES, and localizes to both the surface and hydrophobic core of LIPID DROPLETS, as well as the ENDOPLASMIC RECTICULUM and PLASMA MEMBRANE in MACROPHAGES. It also plays a central role in the biogenesis of lipid droplets and FOAM CELLS and is highly expressed by macrophages at atherosclerotic lesions in human arteries along with the INFLAMMATION markers TNF-ALPHA; MCP-1 RECEPTOR; and IL-6.
Entry Term(s): ADRP Protein; Adipophilin; Adipose Differentiation-Related Protein; PLIN2 Protein; Perilipin 2 Protein
