Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether adiponectin receptor genes (AdipoR1 and AdipoR2) expression in human subcutaneous (SAT) and visceral (VAT) adipose tissue in severely obese patients with or without diabetes is related to adiponectin gene (APM1) expression and in vivo metabolic parameters. DESIGN: Cross-sectional, clinical research study. SUBJECTS: Total RNA was extracted from SAT and VAT tissue obtained during...
