摘要 |
The invention provides a novel human cold-induced glycoprotein-30-like protein (hCig30L protein) and isolated nucleic acid molecules encoding the same. Also provided are antibodies that immunospecifically-bind to hCig30L polypeptide or polynucleotide, or derivatives, variants, mutants, or fragments thereof. The invention additionally provides methods in which the hCig30L polypeptide, polynucleotide, and antibody are used in the detection, prevention, and treatment of a broad range of pathological states, and methods of treating obesity-related disorders or modulating thermogenesis by modulating activity or expression of hCig30L protein. |
