Tumor progression locus 2 (Tpl2) deficiency does not protect against obesity-induced metabolic disease.

Obesity is associated with a state of chronic low grade inflammation that plays an important role in the development of insulin resistance. Tumor progression locus 2 (Tpl2) is a serine/threonine mitogen activated protein kinase kinase kinase (MAP3K) involved in regulating responses to specific infla...
