Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** 1. **Tissue Expression:** FABP3 is widely expressed in various tissues, including cardiac muscle cells, enterocytes, kidney epithelial cells, and other cell types. 2. **Lipid Binding:** FABP3 is a long-chain fatty acid-binding protein, capable of binding and transporting fatty acids, phospholipids, and cholesterol. 3. **Regulatory Functions:** FABP3 is involved in the regulation of fatty acid oxidation, phospholipid biosynthesis, and cholesterol homeostasis, as well as negative regulation of cell population proliferation and positive regulation of fatty acid import into cells. 4. **Cellular Localization:** FABP3 is primarily localized to the cytosol, where it interacts with other proteins to regulate lipid metabolism. **Pathways and Functions:** 1. **Long-chain Fatty Acid Binding and Transport:** FABP3 plays a crucial role in the binding, transport, and oxidation of long-chain fatty acids, which is essential for energy production and lipid metabolism. 2. **Phospholipid Homeostasis:** FABP3 is involved in the regulation of phospholipid biosynthesis and homeostasis, which is critical for maintaining cellular membrane structure and function. 3. **Cholesterol Homeostasis:** FABP3 has been implicated in the regulation of cholesterol homeostasis, which is essential for maintaining proper lipid metabolism and preventing cardiovascular diseases. 4. **Brown Fat Cell Differentiation:** FABP3 is involved in the regulation of brown fat cell differentiation, which is critical for thermogenesis and energy expenditure. 5. **Negative Regulation of Cell Population Proliferation:** FABP3 has been shown to negatively regulate cell population proliferation, which is essential for maintaining tissue homeostasis and preventing cancer. **Clinical Significance:** 1. **Cardiovascular Diseases:** Alterations in FABP3 expression have been linked to various cardiovascular diseases, including heart failure, coronary artery disease, and atherosclerosis. 2. **Metabolic Disorders:** FABP3 has been implicated in the regulation of lipid metabolism and has been linked to metabolic disorders, such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, and dyslipidemia. 3. **Cancer:** FABP3 has been shown to play a role in the regulation of cell population proliferation and has been implicated in the development and progression of certain cancers. 4. **Therapeutic Applications:** FABP3 has been identified as a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of various metabolic and cardiovascular diseases. In conclusion, FABP3 plays a critical role in regulating lipid metabolism and cellular function, and its dysregulation has been linked to various diseases. Further research is needed to fully elucidate the mechanisms by which FABP3 regulates lipid metabolism and to explore its therapeutic potential.
