3266 Understanding epicardial adipose biology by imaging, transcriptomic, and lipidomic profiling

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: The study aims to understand if pro inflammatory epicardial white adipose phenotype is positively associated with coronary atherosclerosis, while the brown adipose phenotype is negatively associated. Primary outcome is association between epicardial fat fraction and coronary atherosclerosis and cardiac function. Secondary outcome is transcriptomic and lipidomic profiling between epicardial, extra pericardial, and...
