Lipid metabolism: The following genes were categorized into the lipid metabolism pathway: PLTP (lipid transport); SCD (lipogenesis); liver X receptor a, nuclear receptor subfamily 1, group H, member (LR1H3) (cholesterol metabolism); FABP3 (fatty acid transport); CPT2, ACADL, and ACOX2 (fatty acid oxidation); and FABP4 (adipocyte differentiation).
(2014) found that ACADL genes were positively correlated with the adipocyte volume.
