Biochem/physiol Actions
FGF21 (fibroblast growth factor) is a hormonal factor which controls glucose homeostasis and energy metabolism. It exhibits anti-diabetic properties by controlling glucose uptake in peripheral tissues. It also possesses autocrine effects in white adipose tissue. FGF21 is present in milk and is needed for intestinal function in the neonate. It is also involved in bone loss. FGF21 exhibits hepatoprotective properties.
