METRNL

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Meteorin-like/Meteorin-Beta (Metrnl)/IL-41, also known as subfatin and cometin, is a small (~27kDa) secreted cytokine, protein encoded by a gene called meteorin-like (METRNL).[1]

Lower serum levels of Metrnl might be a risk factor for developing coronary artery disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus[2][3]
