| 1 | Mechanistically, FGF21 promoted brown adipose tissue (BAT) activation and white adipose tissue (WAT) browning, thereby enhancing the selective uptake of fatty acids from triglyceride-rich lipoproteins into BAT and into browned WAT, consequently accelerating the clearance of the cholesterol-enriched remnants by the liver. | Fatty Acids | fibroblast growth factor 21 | Homo sapiens |
| 2 | In addition, FGF21 reduced body fat, ameliorated glucose tolerance and markedly reduced hepatic steatosis, related to upregulated hepatic expression of genes involved in fatty acid oxidation and increased hepatic VLDL-triglyceride secretion. | Fatty Acids | fibroblast growth factor 21 | Homo sapiens |
