Metabolic signatures of cultured human adipocytes from metabolically healthy versus unhealthy obese individuals.

<h4>Background and aims</h4>Among obese subjects, metabolically healthy and unhealthy obesity (MHO/MUHO) can be differentiated: the latter is characterized by whole-body insulin resistance, hepatic steatosis, and subclinical inflammation. Aim of this study was, to identify adipocyte-spec...
