     This data set resulted from microarray experiments performed on
     human white adipose  tissue after the separation of its two
     cellular components: mature adipocytes and stroma  vascular
     fraction (SVF) cells, the non adipose component of the tissue. The
     purpose of this  experimental model was to distinguish the two
     cellular fractions from a functional perspective  and, in the
     meantime, to help establish the contribution of adipose and non
     adipose cells in  the expression of inflammatory molecules in
     morbid obesity.

_F_o_r_m_a_t:

     Three data frames containing significant genes specifically
     expressed in human mature adipocytes or in stroma  vascular
     fraction cells of human white adipose tissue and a reference list
     with all the genes tested for  differential expression during this
     experiment.
