Bcl-2 modified adipose-derived stem cells improve the retention of fat graft

open access: yesAdipocyte, 2022
In cell-assisted lipotransfer, adipose-derived stem cells play a crucial role in enhancing fat graft retention. In vitro, human adipose-derived stem cells were modified with Bcl-2 gene.

Diversity and heterogeneity in human breast cancer adipose tissue revealed at single-nucleus resolution

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
IntroductionThere is increasing awareness of the role of adipose tissue in breast cancer occurrence and development, but no comparison of adipose adjacent to breast cancer tissues and adipose adjacent to normal breast tissues has been reported ...

Unique adipose tissue invariant natural killer T cell subpopulations control adipocyte turnover in mice

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Adipose tissue invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells are a crucial cell type for adipose tissue homeostasis in obese animals. However, heterogeneity of adipose iNKT cells and their function in adipocyte turnover are not thoroughly understood.

PPARs and Adipose Cell Plasticity [PDF]

open access: yesPPAR Research, 2007
Due to the importance of fat tissues in both energy balance and in the associated disorders arising when such balance is not maintained, adipocyte differentiation has been extensively investigated in order to control and inhibit the enlargement of white adipose tissue. The ability of a cell to undergo adipocyte differentiation is one particular feature

Spatiotemporal contact between peroxisomes and lipid droplets regulates fasting-induced lipolysis via PEX5

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Lipid droplets are organelles that regulate lipid metabolism but if organellar contacts play a role during lipolysis is unclear. Here, the authors show that peroxisomes and peroxisomal protein PEX5 play pivotal roles in the spatial and temporal ...

Dendritic cells and adipose tissue [PDF]

open access: yesImmunology, 2016
SummaryVisceral adipose tissue inflammation in obesity is an established risk factor for metabolic syndrome, which can include insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, hypertension and cardiovascular diseases. With obesity and related metabolic disorders reaching epidemic proportions globally, an understanding of the mechanisms of adipose tissue ...

Angiogenesis in Adipose Tissue: The Interplay Between Adipose and Endothelial Cells [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
Obesity is a worldwide health problem, and as its prevalence increases, so does the burden of obesity-associated co-morbidities like type 2 diabetes or cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Adipose tissue (AT) is an endocrine organ embedded in a dense vascular network. AT regulates the production of hormones, angiogenic factors, and cytokines.

Adipose-derived mesenchymal stromal/stem cells : tissue localization, characterization, and heterogeneity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Adipose tissue as a stem cell source is ubiquitously available and has several advantages compared to other sources. It is easily accessible in large quantities with minimal invasive harvesting procedure, and isolation of adipose-derived mesenchymal ...

The effects of the adipocyte-secreted proteins resistin and visfatin on the pancreatic beta-cell [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of Wolverhampton for degree of Doctor of PhilosophyAdipose tissue secreted proteins (adipokines) have been proposed to form a link between obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D ...
