An fgf21-like gene from swamp eel (Monopterus albus): Recombinant expression and its potential roles in glucose and lipid homeostasis

Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) plays important roles in the regulation of glucose and lipid metabolism and energy balance in mammals. In this study, the full-length cDNA of swamp eel fgf21 was cloned. Sequence analysis showed that swamp eel FGF21 displayed high similarity with FGF21 of other ve...
