Introduction: Peroxisome proliferator activated receptor-γ (PPAR-γ) is a distinguished transcription factor abundantly expressed in the adipose tissues and plays a key role in the regulation of adipocyte differentiation and development of obesity. In the current study, we aimed to investigate the association of PPAR-γ mRNA expression in omental and subcutaneous adipose tissues with anthropometric indices and blood pressure (BP) among healthy adults.<p class=...
