Hepatokines are proteins secreted by the liver that can regulate whole body metabolism. Here the authors identify apolipoprotein J as a hepatokine that regulates muscle glucose metabolism and insulin resistance through a low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein−2 mediated mechanism in mice....
