Expression of adiponectin mRNA and related factors in greater omentum fat tissue in obese subjects / 中华内分泌代谢杂志

The expression of adiponectin mRNA in greater omentum fat tissue was measured in 43 subjects using RT-PCR.The results showed that the expression of adiponectin mRNA in greater omentum fat tissue was significantly lower in obese subjects than that in normal persons,and abdominal obesity,HOMA-IR and tumor necrosis factor-?were the main independent factors influencing the expression of adiponectin mRNA in greater omentum.
