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.

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.

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

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.

White adipose tissue mitochondrial metabolism in health and in obesity
Obesity Reviews, 2019White adipose tissue is one of the largest organs of the body. It plays a key role in whole‐body energy status and metabolism; it not only stores excess energy but also secretes various hormones and metabolites to regulate body energy balance.

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 ...

White adipose tissue and cardiovascular disease
Best Practice & Research Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2005Adipocytes have recently been shown to secrete a variety of bioactive substances called 'adipocytokines', and have been recognized as endocrine cells. Tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-alphaalpha, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) and heparin-binding epidermal-growth-factor-like growth factor (HBEGF) are among these adipocytokines, and they ...

Explant Cultures of White Adipose Tissue
2008Obesity is characterized by increased adiposity of visceral and subcutaneous depots as well as other organs, including the vasculature. These fat depots secrete various hormone-like proteins implicated in metabolic homeostasis (e.g., adiponectin, resistin), the central control of appetite (e.g., leptin) and the increased production of cytokines.

Sandwiched White Adipose Tissue: A Microphysiological System of Primary Human Adipose Tissue
Tissue Engineering Part C: Methods, 2018White adipose tissue (WAT) is a critical organ in both health and disease. However, physiologically faithful tissue culture models of primary human WAT remain limited, at best. In this study we describe a novel WAT culture system in which primary human WAT is sandwiched between tissue-engineered sheets of adipose-derived stromal cells.

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.
