Our study demonstrates that human adipocytes can produce CRP under the stimulation of several proinflammatory cytokines; moreover, CRP production may be modulated by selected pharmacologic intervention. The mechanism(s) underlying these findings are not fully defined, and further studies are needed in this area.

Abstract
Our study demonstrates that human adipocytes can produce CRP under the stimulation of several proinflammatory cytokines; moreover, CRP production may be modulated by selected pharmacologic intervention. The mechanism(s) underlying these findings are not fully defined, and further studies are needed in this area.File in questo prodotto:
