Figure 5. Bariatric intervention increases expression of DNL-related genes and decreases tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) expression in SAT.
FASN (a), ELOVL6 (b), SCD (c), GLUT4 (d), ChREBP-α (e) and TNF-α (f) mRNA in SAT samples of bariatric surgery patients (n = 16–20) before and after weight loss. Means and 95% confidence intervals, paired t-test of log-transformed values. *Significant after adjustment for multiple testing.
