Adipocyte Expression of SLC19A1 Links DNA Hypermethylation to Adipose Tissue Inflammation and Insulin Resistance
7 Nov 2017
Abstract excerpt
Context: Insulin resistance (IR) is promoted by a chronic low-grade inflammation in white adipose tissue (WAT). The latter might be regulated through epigenetic mechanisms such as DNA methylation. The one carbon cycle (1CC) is a central metabolic process governing DNA methylation. Objective: To identify adipocyte-expressed 1CC genes linked to WAT inflammation, IR, and their causal role. Design: Cohort study....
