Expression of FIP1 mRNA in subcutaneous adipose tissue in association with obesity status.

<p>Expression of FIP1 gene in human adipose tissue biopsies was quantified as described in the methods section and correlated with BMI (body mass index). Subjects were classified as non-obese if BMI<30 kg/m²(N=21) and obese if BMI>30 kg/m²(N=55). Diabetic patients were excluded. Boxplots showing the median, interquartile range, outliers, and extreme cases. Statistical analysis T-test, p=0.026.
