Fibroblast Growth Factor 21 and Browning of White Adipose Tissue
Frontiers in Physiology, 2019 Interest has been focused on differentiating anatomical, molecular, and physiological characteristics of the types of mammalian adipose tissues. White adipose tissue (WAT) and brown adipose tissue (BAT) are the two main forms of adipose tissue in humans.

Metabolic effects of FGF-21: thermoregulation and beyond [PDF]
, 2015 Fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-21, a member of the FGF family, is a novel hormone involved in the control of metabolism by modulating glucose homeostasis, insulin sensitivity, ketogenesis, and promoting adipose tissue “browning.” Recent studies ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Biofabrication aims at providing innovative technologies and tools for the fabrication of tissue‐like constructs for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. By integrating multiple biofabrication technologies, such as 3D (bio) printing with fiber fabrication methods, it would be more realistic to reconstruct native tissue's ...

Characteristics and mechanisms of subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissue aging
Chinese Journal of Plastic and Reconstructive SurgeryAging is one of the most significant health challenges worldwide and is a primary cause of chronic diseases and physiological decline. Among the myriad changes that occur with aging, alterations in adipose tissue distribution and function have gained ...

Cold-induced lipid dynamics and transcriptional programs in white adipose tissue
BMC Biology, 2019 In mammals, cold exposure induces browning of white adipose tissue (WAT) and alters WAT gene expression and lipid metabolism to boost adaptive thermogenesis and maintain body temperature.

Perivascular adipose tissue inflammation in vascular disease [PDF]
, 2017 Perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease. In vascular pathologies, perivascular adipose tissue increases in volume and becomes dysfunctional, with altered cellular composition and molecular ...

Visceral Adipose Tissue Inflammatory Factors (TNF-Alpha, SOCS3) in Gestational Diabetes (GDM): Epigenetics as a Clue in GDM Pathophysiology [PDF]
, 2020 Gestational diabetes (GDM) is among the most challenging diseases in westernized countries, affecting mother and child, immediately and in later life. Obesity is a major risk factor for GDM.

Immune Cells Gate White Adipose Tissue Expansion [PDF]
Endocrinology, 2019 The immune system plays a critical role in white adipose tissue (WAT) energy homeostasis and, by extension, whole-body metabolism. Substantial evidence from mouse and human studies firmly establishes that insulin sensitivity deteriorates as a result of subclinical inflammation in the adipose tissue of individuals with diabetes.
