Inflammatory Pathway Genes Belong to Major Targets of Persistent Organic Pollutants in Adipose Cells
19 Jan 2012
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Epidemiological studies emphasize the possible role of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in obesity and the metabolic syndrome. These pollutants are stored in adipose tissue (AT). OBJECTIVES: Our aim was to study the effects of POPs on human adipose cells and rodent AT. METHODS: Using human multipotent adipose-derived stem cells, we carried out large-scale gene expression analysis to identify the...
