Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are important regulators of adipogenesis and may play a role in obesity. In this study, the hypothesis that BMP2 is related to adipose tissue (AT) distribution in obesity was tested. METHODS: BMP2 serum concentration (n = 439) and BMP2 and Schnurri-1 and -2 mRNA expression were measured in paired samples of visceral and subcutaneous AT from 547 individuals with a wide...
