Asprosin is a protein hormone, but is unique in its generation as the C-terminal cleavage product of a large extracellular matrix protein. Therefore, it has been postulated to belong to a new protein hormone subclass: caudamins. It has been placed in this subclass along with the hormones: endostatin, endotrophin and placensin. [23]
