  • To identify genes predominantly expressed in omental adipocytes, microarray expression profiles from 33 human tissues or cell types were analyzed, using an algorithm developed for identification of transcripts predominantly expressed in a certain tissue. Both known adipocyte-specific and more unexpected genes were among the 28 genes identified. To validate the approach, adipocyte expression of three of these genes, acute-phase serum amyloid A (A-SAA), aquaporin 7, and transport secretion protein-2.2, was compared with 17 other human tissues by real-time PCR. The unexpectedly high expression of A-SAA in adipocytes was further verified by Northern blot and immunohistochemistry. The liver, reported to be the main production site for A-SAA, displayed the second highest expression using microarray and real-time PCR. In obese subjects, adipose tissue mRNA and serum A-SAA levels were down-regulated during an 18-wk diet regime (P < 0.05 and P < 0.0001, respectively). A-SAA serum levels were highly correlated to adipose tissue mRNA levels (P < 0.001) and to the total (P < 0.0001) and sc (P < 0.0001) adipose tissue areas, as analyzed by computed tomography. We show that adipose tissue is a major expression site of A-SAA during the nonacute-phase reaction condition. This provides a direct link between adipose tissue mass and a marker for low-grade inflammation and cardiovascular risk.
