FABP4 dynamics in obesity: discrepancies in adipose tissue and liver expression regarding circulating plasma levels.
<h4>Background</h4>FABP4 is predominantly expressed in adipose tissue, and its circulating levels are linked with obesity and a poor atherogenic profile.<h4>Objective</h4>In patients with a wide BMI range, we analyze FABP4 expression in adipose and hepatic tissues in the sett...
