Project name: Homo sapiens

Description: Adipose inflammation is a key component of cardiometabolic disease. We used microarray to profile gene expression changes in adipose tissue following administration of LPS (3ng/kg IV) to healthy human volunteers.Overall design: We obtained subcutaneous adipose biopsies from healthy volunteers at baseline, and at 4-, 12- and 24-hours following evoked endotoxemia (LPS), to examine gene expression changes during inflammation.

Data type: Transcriptome or Gene expression

Sample scope: Multiisolate

Relevance: Medical
