Article Synopsis
- Obesity is linked to a higher risk of hypertension, which leads to public health concerns, especially in class 3 obesity cases.
- A study was conducted on women with class 3 obesity to analyze RNA expression of adiponectin and leptin in their adipose tissue, comparing those with and without hypertension.
- Results showed that women with higher blood pressure had significantly increased adiponectin mRNA levels in subcutaneous adipose tissue, highlighting a potential relationship between adipokines and hypertension treatment.
