Predicted MW: Monomer, 16 kDa (138 aa). Chemerin is a chemoattractant adipokine that is expressed in white adipose, liver, skin, and lung tissues. Chemerin is a ligand for the G protein-coupled receptor chemokine-like receptor 1 (ChemR23), which is expressed on dendritic cells, macrophages, and adipocytes. Chemerin functions to recruit macrophages to sites of tissue damage and inflammation. Chemerin is also a regulator of glucose metabolism in the liver. Due to the roles of chemerin during metabolism and inflammation, it may be a key factor in obesity-related diseases such as type 2 diabetes mellitus.
