Hexokinase of white adipose tissue
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Specialized Section on Enzymological Subjects, 1963Abstract Apparent Michaelis constants for glucose and fructose of white adipose tissue hexokinase have been estimated by determining the rate of hexose C-1 oxidation through the hexose monophosphate shunt with added glucose-6- P dehydrogenase and NADP + . The values obtained are: fructose, 3 mM; glucose, 0.07 mM.

, 2010 Adipose tissue exist in two different forms which can be distinguished with the free eye by their color: white adipose tissue and brown adipose tissue. Both have a highly differing fine structure. Furthermore, their location differs significantly. White adipose tissue is found in the subcutaneous tissue where it exists mainly as single adipocytes or in

White Adipose Tissue: Getting Nervous
Journal of Neuroendocrinology, 2003AbstractNeuroendocrine research has altered the traditional perspective of white adipose tissue (WAT) as a passive store of triglycerides. In addition to fatty acids, WAT produces many hormones and can therefore be designated as a traditional endocrine gland actively participating in the integrative physiology of fuel and energy metabolism, eating ...

Subcutaneous Transplantation of White Adipose Tissue
2023In the research setting, white adipose tissue (WAT) transplantation, also known as fat transplantation, is often used to understand the physiological function of adipocytes or associated stromal vascular cells such as macrophages in the context of local and systemic metabolism.

Maintenance of white adipose tissue in man
The International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology, 2014Obesity is increasing in an epidemic manner in most countries and constitutes a public health problem by enhancing the risk for diseases such as diabetes, fatty liver disease and atherosclerosis. Together these diseases form a cluster referred to as the metabolic syndrome.

White adipose tissue (WAT) is one of the most abundant tissues in mammals, exhibiting numerous complex functions. The primary purpose of WAT is to store excess energy in the form of fat for future use by other cells of the organism during periods of energy deprivation.

Circadian rhythms in white adipose tissue
2012Adipose tissue is an important endocrine organ. It is involved in the regulation of energy metabolism by secreting factors (adipokines) that regulate appetite, food intake, glucose disposal, and energy expenditure. Many of these adipokines display profound day/night rhythms, and accumulating evidence links disruption of these rhythms to metabolic ...

Organization of white adipose tissue in lemuridae
American Journal of Primatology, 1995AbstractThe gross anatomy of white adipose tissue was studied in seven carcasses representing three lemurid species (Lemur catta, Eulemur fulvus, E. mongoz) to validate in vivo methods of assessing fatness, and to contribute to a comprehensive database on the organization of adipose tissue in Mammalia.

Sensory innervation of white adipose tissue
American Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology, 1987The presumption that sensory information does not arise from white adipose tissue was reevaluated using the neuroanatomical tracer, "true blue." Fluorescent cell bodies were observed in dorsal root ganglia of rats after tracer was implanted into inguinal or dorsal subcutaneous fat depots.
