Expression and clinical significance of the obesity-related gene TNFAIP9 in obese children

Authors: L.Y. Gui, Y.L. Hu, Z.L. Hou and P. Wang

To investigate the expression of tumor necrosis factor-alpha inducible protein 9 (TNFAIP9) gene in obese children and its clinical significance, 36 simple obese children and 17 non-obese children were recruited as research subjects. The adipose tissue was obtained by abdominal operation. The expression of TNFAIP9 was detected using real-time fluorescence .. Read More»
