Gene expression profile of rat adipose tissue at the onset of high-fat-diet obesity
1 Jun 2002
Abstract excerpt
Morbid obesity is the result of massive expansion of white adipose tissue (WAT) and requires recruitment of adipocyte precursor cells and their supporting infrastructure. To characterize the change in the expression profile of the preexisting WAT at the start of obesity, when adipocyte hypertrophy is present but hyperplasia is still minimal, we employed a cDNA subtraction screen for genes differentially expressed...
