Bo-juan Zheng, Jinying Li, Shu-hua An

Abstract

Adipocyte fatty acid binding protein (A-FABP),also known as adipocyte lipid binding protein (ALBP),fatty acid binding proteins4 (FABP4),ap2,422 protein or P15 protein,is the most important member of FABP.It is closely related to many types of inflammatory cells in bronchial asthma.Studies suggest that A-FABP may play an important role in bronchial asthma. Key words: Adipocyte fatty acid binding protein; Asthma
