Adipose-Derived Stem Cells: Isolation, Characterization, and Differentiation Potential
In mammals, the two main types of adipose tissues, white and brown adipose tissues, exert different physiological functions. White adipose tissue (WAT) is for storing energy, while brown adipose tissue (BAT) is for energy consumption.

Summary: Obesity in humans is associated with poorer health outcomes after infections compared with non-obese individuals. Here, we examined the effects of white adipose tissue and obesity on T cell responses to viral infection in mice.

Insulin degradation by adipose tissue is increased in human obesity
White adipose tissue samples from obese and lean patients were used for the estimation ofinsulin protease and insulin:glutathione transhydrogenase using 1251-labeled insulin.

Obesity, white adipose tissue and cancer
White adipose tissue (WAT) is crucial for whole‐body energy homeostasis and plays an important role in metabolic and hormonal regulation. While healthy WAT undergoes controlled expansion and contraction to meet the body's requirements, dysfunctional WAT in conditions like obesity is characterized by excessive tissue expansion, alterations in lipid ...

HOXC10 suppresses browning of white adipose tissues [PDF]
Given that increased thermogenesis in white adipose tissue, also known as browning, promotes energy expenditure, significant efforts have been invested to determine the molecular factors involved in this process. Here we show that HOXC10, a homeobox domain-containing transcription factor expressed in subcutaneous white adipose tissue, is a suppressor ...

Lactate and the GPR81 receptor in metabolic regulation: implications for adipose tissue function and fatty acid utilisation by muscle during exercise [PDF]
Lactate is increasingly recognised to be more than a simple end product of anaerobic glycolysis. Skeletal muscle and white adipose tissue are considered to be the main sites of lactate production and release.

Aortic carboxypeptidase-like protein enhances adipose tissue stromal progenitor differentiation into myofibroblasts and is upregulated in fibrotic white adipose tissue. [PDF]
White adipose tissue expands through both adipocyte hypertrophy and hyperplasia and it is hypothesized that fibrosis or excess accumulation of extracellular matrix within adipose tissue may limit tissue expansion contributing to metabolic dysfunction ...

Mitochondrial function/dysfunction in white adipose tissue
New Findings What is the topic of this review?The review covers basic knowledge about the role of mitochondria in the homeostatic function of adipose tissue. It also provide a comprehensive analysis of how mitochondrial function is affected during obesity and lipoatrophies and discuss the results of recent studies that targeted mitochondrial function ...
