Adipose Tissue and Adipokines: The Association with and Application of Adipokines in Obesity [PDF]
Scientifica, 2014 2014 marks the 20th anniversary of adipokines. Through the identification of leptin, our perceived understanding of adipose tissue was changed instantaneously.

Annales d'Endocrinologie, 2016 Adipose tissue is now widely recognized as "an organ" able to synthesize and secrete hundred factors collectively called adipokines. These secreted molecules exert pleiotropic actions, notably on the regulation of glucose and lipid metabolism, inflammation, reproduction, or angiogenesis.

Clinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology, 2011 Summary1. Obesity is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. An increased body mass index (BMI) is associated with venous thromboembolism, myocardial infarction, stroke and stent thrombosis after percutaneous interventions. Studies in mouse models of obesity and induced arterial or venous thrombosis have provided insights into the mechanisms ...

Journal of Atherosclerosis and Thrombosis, 2011 Dysregulation of adipose tissue-derived bioactive molecules, termed adipokines, is recognized as common ground for insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome associated with obesity. However, adipokine dysregulation is paradoxically associated with lipodystrophy and lipoatrophy with aging.

Adipokines in glucose and lipid metabolism
Adipocyte, 2023 Adipokines are proteins secreted by adipose tissue to regulate glucolipid metabolism and play vital roles in our body. Different adipokines have more than one endocrine function and be divided into several different categories according to their ...

Newly Discovered Adipokines: Pathophysiological Link Between Obesity and Cardiometabolic Disorders
Frontiers in Physiology, 2020 With the increasing prevalence of obesity, obesity-related problems such as cardiometabolic disorders (CMD), are also rapidly increasing. To prevent and alleviate the progressive course of CMD, it is important to discover the pathophysiological ...

Regulation of vascular tone by adipocytes
BMC Medicine, 2011 Recent studies have shown that adipose tissue is an active endocrine and paracrine organ secreting several mediators called adipokines. Adipokines include hormones, inflammatory cytokines and other proteins.
