Therefore, we explored the effect of HDL isolated from CAD or AVS patients on the expression of OPN, BMP2, and BMP4, genes coding for proteins related to calcification, osteopontin, and bone morphogenetic proteins -2 and -4, respectively, and LEP, UCP, and PER, coding for leptin, uncoupling protein-1, and perilipin-2, respectively, proteins that confer phenotypic characteristics to adipocytes. This evidence concerns the gene UCP1 and coronary artery disorder.
