Expression and clinical significance of the obesity-related gene TNFAIP9 in obese children
Abstract
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 quantitative polymerase chain reaction and western blot. The relationship between the expression of TNFAIP9 and blood lipid, blood glucose, and obesity indexes was analyzed. The levels of TNFAIP9 mRNA and protein in obese children were significantly lower than those in the control group (P
