Physiological control of gene expression in adipose tissues of genetically obese (ob/ob) mice
Fatty acids and glucose are fuels of major importance to mammalian tissues, and their uptake is controlled by two key proteins, lipoprotein lipase (LPL), and in insulin-sensitive tissues, the glucose transporter GLUT4. This thesis describes the investigation of these proteins at the level of the gen...
