Uncoupling protein gene: quantification of expression levels in adipose tissues of obese and non-obese humans

1 Oct 1997

Abstract excerpt

The mitochondrial uncoupling protein (UCP), which is exclusively expressed in brown adipose tissue, regulates energy expenditure in rodents but its importance in the energy homeostasis of adult humans is uncertain. To study associations of UCP gene expression with human obesity, we determined, by a competitive reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction assay, UCP mRNA expression levels in intra- and...
