Differences in AMPK expression between subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissue in morbid obesity

O Martínez-Agustin, JJ Hernández-Morante… - Regulatory peptides, 2010 - Elsevier
Adenine monophosphate (AMP) activated protein kinase (AMPK) is an important regulator of
obesity. The objective of the present work was to study and compare AMPK protein
expression in visceral vs. subcutaneous adipose tissue of morbid obese subjects and to
correlate it with adipose tissue characteristics. We selected a total population of 17 extreme
obese (BMI≥ 40kg/m2) aged 42.8±10.2 years were included in this study. We measured
anthropometric and body composition parameters. Adiponectin expression by qRT-PCR …
