AT-EOS content
subcutaneous fat biopsy will be processed to extract stromal vascular fraction (SVF) which will contain eosinophils. The SVF will be run trough flow cytometry to get an estimated count to be reported as a ratio over the total number of cells
AT-EOS content

Secondary Outcome Measures

insulin sensitivity
mixed meal test
inflammation
Plasma will be isolated during fasting condition. MCP-1, TNFa, IL-4, IL-13, Leptin, adiponectin will be assessed via Multiplex ELISA
