Tenomodulin Is Highly Expressed in Adipose Tissue, Increased in Obesity, and Down-Regulated during Diet-Induced Weight Loss
14 Jul 2009
Abstract excerpt
CONTEXT: Tenomodulin (TNMD), a putative angiogenesis inhibitor, is expressed in hypovascular connective tissues. Global gene expression scans show that the TNMD gene also is expressed in human adipose tissue and that its expression is regulated in response to weight reduction; however, more detailed information is lacking. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate TNMD tissue distribution and TNMD gene...
