LIPE and Lipedema: In this study, we defined the expression of ERs and ER-metabolizing enzymes: hydroxysteroid 17-beta dehydrogenase (HSD17B1, 7, B12), cytochrome P450 (CYP19A1), hormone-sensitive lipase (LIPE), enzyme steroid sulfatase (STS), and estrogen sulfotransferase (SULT1E1), which are markers in Body Mass Index (BMI) and age-matched non-lipedema (healthy) and lipedema ASCs.
