(Genetics and Molecular Research, 2012)
11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11β-HSD-1) activity and mRNA levels are increased in visceral and subcutaneous adipose tissues of metabolic syndrome subjects. We analyzed 11β-HSD-1 expression in human epicardial ...

(Elsevier, 2008)
Background: Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of different clinical manifestations that are risk factors for atherothrombotic cardiovascular
disorders. Fatty-acid-binding protein 4 (FABP4/aP2), which is highly expressed in ...
