Hormonal Control of Adipocyte Differentiation and Adipocyte Gene Expression

1988
Publisher Summary This chapter presents a summarization of a large number of studies aimed at elucidating the signaling system by which determined cells decide to activate a terminal differentiation program. Using adipogenic cells in culture, it can be documented that the hormonal milieu plays a major role in dictating the decision to trigger ...

Adipocytes in the Tumour Microenvironment

2020
Adipose tissue contribution to body mass ranges from 6% in male athletes to over 25% in obese men and over 30% in obese women. Crosstalk between adipocytes and cancer cells that exist in close proximity can lead to changes in the function and phenotype of both cell types. These interactions actively alter the tumour microenvironment (TME).

Adipocyte and Chemokines: A Link between Preadipocyte/Adipocyte and Macrophage in Adipocyte- Related Pathologies

Preventive Nutrition and Food Science, 2004
This review will present a brief overview on the adipocytokines and chemokines in terms of their classifications and functions, and further discuss the most recent results of chemokine research into their regulation of adipocyte functions and/or adipocyte-related pathologies. The potential link between preadipocytes/adipocytes and macrophages will also

The effect of glucocorticoids on adipocyte corticotropin receptors and adipocyte responses

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 1981
A specific and sensitive assay for determining the binding of adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) to isolated rat adipocytes has been developed and utilized to study the effect of glucocorticoids on ACTH receptor. Measurement of the binding of tritiated ACTH (spec. act.

Adipocyte biology and adipocytokines

Clinics in Laboratory Medicine, 2004
Adipose tissue actively participates in regulation of food intake, energy expenditure, fuel metabolism, and a variety of other physiologic processes through its endocrine, paracrine, and autocrine secretory products (Table 4). Abnormal synthesis of these secretory products may be related to the pathogenesis of insulin resistance and its complications ...

Complement, adipocytes and the kiney

Nephrology, 1996
Summary: The complement system has traditionally been thought of as a group of circulating proteins predominantly produced in the liver, with functions in both afferent and efferent arms of the immune response, primarily concerned with host defence. In recent years, it has become apparent that many tissues synthesize and secrete complement components ...

Adipocyte hormones

2016
Leptin, adiponectin, acylation stimulating protein, and resistin are called adipokines, which are produced and secreted from adipocytes and have various physiological functions. Leptin is secreted from white adipocytes and suppresses appetite by acting on the hypothalamus.

[Leptin: adipocyte hormone].

Recenti progressi in medicina, 1998
The authors reviewed the most recent literature on leptin, a protein produced by adipocytes which exerts its action on hypothalamus, modifying eating behavior and inhibiting the lust for food consumption. This one appeared to be the main, if not the only, physiologic action of leptin.

The Adipocyte-Number Hypothesis

Child Development, 1981
The adipocyte-number hypothesis was derived from experimental studies of rats. It states the number of adipocytes (fat cells) is fixed early in life and predestines an individual to be lean or obese depending on changes in the number of adipocytes. However, the present methods for estimating adipocyte number are based on the estimation of total body ...
