The fat mass and obesity associated (FTO) gene has been found to contribute to the risk of obesity in humans, but the function and regulation of FTO mRNA expression in adipose tissues remain to be clarified. Our aims were to assess the FTO gene expression in subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissues from morbidly obese women and its relation with obesity, insulin resistance indices, and most importantly, to obesity-related inflammatory markers.
