Obesity and Race Alter Gene Expression in Skin

2020-06-05

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Obesity is accompanied by dysfunction of many organs, but effects on the skin have received little attention. We studied differences in epithelial thickness by histology and gene expression by Affymetrix gene arrays and PCR in the skin of 10 obese (BMI 35-50) and 10 normal weight (BMI 18.5-26.9) postmenopausal women paired by age and race. Epidermal thickness did not differ with obesity but the e...
