We noticed that mature adipocytes express a high level of selected adipokines (leptin, adiponectin, resistin), lipid transport protein (FABP4), and enzymes related to lipid synthesis (FADS, SC4MOL, FASN), while their levels decrease in adipocytes cocultured with melanoma cells (Figs. 2, 5). This evidence concerns the gene ADIPOQ and melanoma.
