Adipose tissue is a critical regulator of osteoarthritis
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2020 Significance Obesity is a primary risk factor for osteoarthritis, involving complex interactions among the metabolic, biomechanical, and inflammatory factors caused by increased adiposity.

Perivascular Adipose Tissue [PDF]
, 2019 Contractility of small arteries determines systemic blood pressure, so the microvasculature is often invoked as a therapeutic target for hypertension and its consequences. This is especially the case for obesity-related hypertension which is characterized by small artery dysfunction.

The Importance of Breast Adipose Tissue in Breast Cancer
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020 Adipose tissue is a complex endocrine organ, with a role in obesity and cancer. Adipose tissue is generally linked to excessive body fat, and it is well known that the female breast is rich in adipose tissue.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Exposure to common noxious agents (1), including allergens, pollutants, and micro‐nanoplastics, can cause epithelial barrier damage (2) in our body's protective linings. This may trigger an immune response to our microbiome (3). The epithelial barrier theory explains how this process can lead to chronic noncommunicable diseases (4) affecting organs ...

Persistent organic pollutant burden, experimental POP exposure and tissue properties affect metabolic profiles of blubber from grey seal pups [PDF]
, 2018 Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are toxic, ubiquitous, resist breakdown, bioaccumulate in living tissue and biomagnify in food webs. POPs can also alter energy balance in humans and wildlife.

Adipose Tissue Dysfunction as Determinant of Obesity-Associated Metabolic Complications
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2019 Obesity is a critical risk factor for the development of type 2 diabetes (T2D), and its prevalence is rising worldwide. White adipose tissue (WAT) has a crucial role in regulating systemic energy homeostasis. Adipose tissue expands by a combination of an

Adipose Tissue Fibrosis: Mechanisms, Models, and Importance
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020 Increases in adipocyte volume and tissue mass due to obesity can result in inflammation, further dysregulation in adipose tissue function, and eventually adipose tissue fibrosis.

Adipose tissue and liver [PDF]
Journal of Applied Physiology, 2018 Adipose tissue and liver are central tissues in whole body energy metabolism. Their composition, structure, and function can be noninvasively imaged using a variety of measurement techniques that provide a safe alternative to an invasive biopsy. Imaging of adipose tissue is focused on quantitating the distribution of adipose tissue in subcutaneous and

Adipose Tissue and Atherothrombosis [PDF]
Pathophysiology of Haemostasis and Thrombosis, 2003 Obesity is associated with increased cardiovascular mortality and morbidity mainly through insulin resistance. Dysregulation of protein secretion by adipose tissue is involved in obesity-related diseases. Adipose tissue contributes to create a subinflammatory status which could explain the disturbances in the haemostatic and fibrinolytic systems ...
