Figure 3. Leptin and adiponectin in human breast adipose reflect the stem cell population in vivo.

Figure 3

A. Leptin concentration is positively correlated with the percentage of epithelial cells with stem-like features in vivo, whereas adiponectin is inversely correlated (B). C. The best linear relationship was seen between the leptin/adiponectin ratio and the stem cell population. A total of 15 subjects were evaluated.
