Comparison of visceral adipose tissue DNA methylation and gene expression profiles in female adolescents with obesity
27 Nov 2019
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Background Epigenetic changes in visceral adipose tissue (VAT) with obesity and their effects on gene expression are poorly understood, especially during emergent obesity in youth. The current study tested the hypothesis that methylation and gene expression profiles of key growth factor and inflammatory pathways are altered in VAT from obese compared to non-obese youth. Methods VAT samples from...
