White adipose tissue (WAT) is characterized by the ability to produce and release a variety of proinflammatory adipokines such as leptin, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, and macrophage migration inhibitory factor, all of which have been linked to insulin resistance [3]. The gene discussed is IL1B; the disease is Insulin resistance.
