Anjali Gupta, +98 more
TL;DR: In this paper , the association of lipid biomarkers (total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL), low-density lipid (LDL), and triglycerides) with increased risk of breast cancer in African women was examined.

Reversing adipocyte differentiation: Implications for treatment of obesity (leptinypost-adipocyteydedifferentiationylipogenesisyoxidation)

TL;DR: It is reported here that the hyperleptinemia depletes adipocyte fat while profoundly down-regulating lipogenic enzymes and their transcription factor, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)gamma in epididymal fat, which suggests a strategy for the treatment of obesity by alteration of the adipocyte phenotype.
