Multi-omics analysis of lipedema tissue revealed local downregulation of inflammation-related factors alongside upregulation of mitochondrial and oxidative phosphorylation pathways, with minimal systemic inflammatory changes but altered sphingolipid, glutamic acid, and glutathione levels suggesting metabolic rather than classical inflammatory mechanisms.
