Body mass index-independent inflammation in omental adipose tissue associated with insulin resistance in morbid obesity
Open accessAbstract
Background Obesity is a strong risk factor for resistance to insulin-mediated glucose disposal, a precursor of type 2 diabetes and other disorders. Objectives To identify molecular pathways that may cause such obesity-associated insulin resistance in human subjects, we exploited the fact that not all obese individuals are prone to insulin resistance. Thus the degree of obesity as a variable was removed by studying morbidly obese human subjects of similar BMI values who are insulin-sensitive versus insulin-resistant. Setting University Medical Center, United States Methods Combining gene expression profiling with computational approaches, we determined the global gene expression signatures of omental and subcutaneous adipose tissue samples obtained from similarly obese patients undergoing gastric bypass surgery. Results Gene sets related to chemokine activity and chemokine receptor-binding were identified as most highly expressed in the omental tissue from insulin-resistant compared to insulin sensitive subjects, independent of BMI. These upregulated genes included chemokines CCL2, CCL3, CCL4, CCL18 and IL8/CXCL8, and were not differentially expressed in subcutaneous adipose tissues between the two groups of subjects. Strikingly, insulin resistance, but not BMI, was associated with increased macrophage infiltration in the omental adipose tissue, as was adipocyte size, in these morbidly obese subjects. Conclusions Our findings demonstrate that inflammation of omental adipose tissue is strongly associated with insulin resistance in human obesity even in subjects with similar BMI values. Increased omental fat mass may contribute to the amplified inflammatory response observed in this population.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
