Fig. 4From: Assessment of lipolysis biomarkers in adipose tissue of patients with gastrointestinal cancerAnalysis of SAT lipolysis-associated proteins by Western blot in gastrointestinal cancer patients with and without cachexia and in controls. Protein densitometry quantification for CGI58, PLIN1, and PLIN5 in SAT of cancer patients with cachexia (N = 7), without cachexia (N = 10) and controls (N = 8). Actin-β was used as the loading control. A Patients with cachexia showed higher CGI58 levels compared to controls (p = 0.029). B, C No significant difference was observed in PLIN1 and PLIN5 protein levels. *p < 0.05. Abbreviations: Comparative Gene Identification-58, CGI-58; perilipin, PLINBack to article page
