CTRP1, a member of the CTRP superfamily, consists of an N-terminal signal peptide sequence followed by a variable region, a collagen repeat domain, and a C-terminal globular domain. CTRP1 is expressed at high levels in adipose tissues of LPS-stimulated Sprague-Dawley rats. The LPS-induced increase in CTRP1 gene expression was found to be mediated by TNF-alpha and IL-1 beta. Also, a high level of expression of CTRP1 mRNA was observed in adipose tissues of Zucker diabetic fatty (falfa) rats, compared to Sprague-Dawley rats in the absence of LPS stimulation. These findings indicate that CTRP1 expression may be associated with a low-grade chronic inflammation status in adipose tissues. (c) 2006 Federation of European Biochemical Societies.
