Glucocorticoid-induced Fingerprints on Visceral Adipose Tissue Transcriptome and Epigenome

Abstract excerpt

CONTEXT: Chronic glucocorticoid (GC) overexposure, resulting from endogenous Cushing's syndrome (CS) or exogenous GC therapy, causes several adverse outcomes, including persistent central fat accumulation associated with a low-grade inflammation. However, no previous multiomics studies in visceral adipose tissue (VAT) from patients exposed to high levels of unsuppressed GC during active CS or after remission are...
