Mitochondrial Proliferation, Dna Depletion and Adipocyte Differentiation in Subcutaneous Adipose Tissue of HIV-Positive Haart Recipients
1 May 2003
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: To examine the in vivo effects of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) regimens on adipose tissue mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) depletion, mitochondrial organellar proliferation, and markers of adipocyte differentiation and phenotype. DESIGN AND METHODS: DNA and mRNA quantification using real-time PCR methods was performed on adipose tissue samples from 31 HIV-infected individuals, of whom 11 were...
