Retn - resistin Gene

Also Known as ADSF; Rstn; Xcp4; Fizz3

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 57264

Summary

Predicted to enable hormone activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including positive regulation of cell communication; positive regulation of smooth muscle cell migration; and positive regulation of smooth muscle cell proliferation. Located in extracellular space. Is expressed in adipose tissue; gonadal fat pad; inguinal fat pad; renal fat pad; and white fat. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypertension; hypertrophic cardiomyopathy; obesity; and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human RETN (resistin).
