Journal ArticleDOI

Endothelial progenitor cells in morbid obesity.

TL;DR: EPC are positively related to markers of adiposity in severe Obesity, when not complicated by diabetes, and weight loss is associated with decrease in EPC level, confirming their protective role also in severe obesity.

TL;DR: Hyperprolactinemia is associated with obesity and in human adipose tissue cultured in vitro, prolactin (PRL) inhibited lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activity via functional PRL receptors.
Journal ArticleDOI
