| 1 | Retinol binding protein 4 expression in humans: relationship to insulin resistance, inflammation, and response to pioglitazone. | Pioglitazone | retinol binding protein 4 | Homo sapiens |
| 2 | Treatment of IGT subjects with pioglitazone resulted in an increase in S(I) and an increase in RBP4 gene expression in both adipose tissue and muscle, but not in plasma RBP4 level, and the in vitro treatment of cultured adipocytes with pioglitazone yielded a similar increase in RBP4 mRNA. | Pioglitazone | retinol binding protein 4 | Homo sapiens |
| 3 | The increase in RBP4 mRNA after pioglitazone treatment is unusual, suggesting a complex regulation of this novel adipokine. | Pioglitazone | retinol binding protein 4 | Homo sapiens |
