Adipose-specific phospholipase as regulator of adiposity [PDF]
A white adipose-tissue-specific intracellular phospholipase, which releases arachidonic acid from position sn-2 of phospholipids, was recently discovered and named AdPLA. When AdPLA was induced by feeding or by insulin treatment, the arachidonic acid released from phospholipids acted as a precursor for the formation of prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2 ...

Body mass index, abdominal fatness, fat mass and the risk of atrial fibrillation: a systematic review and dose–response meta-analysis of prospective studies [PDF]
Different adiposity measures have been associ- ated with increased risk of atrial fibrillation, however, results have previously only been summarized for BMI. We therefore conducted a systematic review and meta- analysis of prospective studies to clarify

Targeting adipose tissue [PDF]
Two different types of adipose tissues can be found in humans enabling them to respond to starvation and cold: white adipose tissue (WAT) is generally known and stores excess energy in the form of triacylglycerol (TG), insulates against cold, and serves as a mechanical cushion. Brown adipose tissue (BAT) helps newborns to cope with cold.
