Study Summary
The purpose of this study is to collect data to help researchers better understand the different ways that women or men store fat (apple shape versus pear shape).
Primary Outcome
The preadipocytes obtained from biopsies of Abdominal Fat and Gluteofemoral Fat from patients in the 'pears' woman, 'apple' women and men will be cultured by our standard methods in proliferative medium followed by our standard protocol for differentiation into mature adipocytes. We propose to evaluate samples from 3 individuals from each Group to identify a large number of differentially regulated regions genome wide. All the data obtained in vitro in culture cells will be compared with the dat
