Clodronate liposomes improve metabolic profile and reduce visceral adipose macrophage content in diet-induced obese mice.
BACKGROUND: Obesity-related adipose inflammation has been thought to be a causal factor for the development of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Infiltrated macrophages in adipose tissue of obese animals and humans are an important source for inflammatory cytokines. Clodronate liposomes can ab...
