Research Abstract |
Adipocytekines from obese adipose tissue are suggested to be key players on life-related diseases and metabolic syndrome. So we studied the mechanisms of formation and secretion of adipocytekines from adipocytes. It was revealed that dietary derived fatty acids and some plant compounds effects on the formation and secretion of adipocytekines from adipocytes through the transcriptional regulation of gene.
