[HTML][HTML] Regulation of the nitric oxide system in human adipose tissue
S Engeli, J Janke, K Gorzelniak, J Böhnke… - Journal of lipid …, 2004 - ASBMB
Nitric oxide (NO) is involved in adipose tissue biology by influencing adipogenesis, insulin-
stimulated glucose uptake, and lipolysis. The enzymes responsible for NO formation in
adipose cells are endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) and inducible NO synthase (iNOS),
whereas neuronal NO synthase (bNOS) is not expressed in adipocytes. We characterized
the expression pattern and the influence of adipogenesis, obesity, and weight loss on genes
belonging to the NO system in human subcutaneous adipose cells by combining in vivo and …
