Partial pressure of oxygen in adipose tissue and its relationship with fatness in a natural animal model of extreme fat deposition, the grey seal

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2021
Excessive adiposity is associated with altered oxygen tension and comorbidities in humans. In contrast, marine mammals have high adiposity with no apparent detrimental effects.

ADIPOSITY IN BRITISH PAKISTANI AND WHITE BRITISH SCHOOL CHILDREN AGED 7-11 YEARS LIVING IN MIDDLESBROUGH, UK: ASSOCIATIONS WITH ETHNICITY, GENERATION, AND BIRTH WEIGHT [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
People of South Asian ethnicities in the UK are at a high risk of obesity and related illnesses. This thesis tests predictions derived from the developmental origins literature regarding adiposity in British Pakistanis in middle childhood.

Association Between Metabolically Different Adiposity Subtypes and Osteoarthritis: A Mendelian Randomization Study

open access: yes, 2022
OBJECTIVE: In this Mendelian randomisation (MR) study, we investigate the causal effect of metabolically different adiposity subtypes on osteoarthritis. METHODS: We performed two-sample MR using summary-level data for osteoarthritis (10,083 cases and 40 ...

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Overall Adiposity, Adipose Tissue Distribution, and Endometriosis [PDF]

open access: yesNursing Research, 2016
Endometriosis has been associated with a lean body habitus. However, we do not understand whether endometriosis is also associated with other characteristics of adiposity, including adipose tissue distribution and amount of visceral adipose tissue (VAT; adipose tissue lining inner organs).

Adiposity induced by adenovirus 5 inoculation

open access: yes, 2005
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of viral inoculation by adenovirus 5 (Ad5) on body composition in a mouse model. DESIGN: Longitudinal monitoring before and after a single injection of virus or saline. SUBJECTS: Two groups of CD1 mice, one group

Dimethyl fumarate combined with cisplatin at subcytotoxic doses sensitizes cervical cancer toward ferroptosis and apoptosis through GSH restriction and p53 (re)activation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dimethyl fumarate (DMF) reduces growth of HPV‐positive cervical cancer spheroids and induces ferroptosis in cervical cancer cells via blocking SLC7A11/Glutathione (GSH) axis. Combination of subcytotoxic doses of DMF and cisplatin (CDDP) further suppresses spheroid growth and drives cell death in 2D culture models.

Heart Rate Is a Better Predictor of Cardiorespiratory Fitness Than Heart Rate Variability in Overweight/Obese Children: The ActiveBrains Project

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2019
Cardiac autonomic function can be quantified through mean heart rate (HR) or heart rate variability (HRV). Numerous studies have supported the utility of different HRV parameters as indicators of cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF).

Adiposity is associated with DNA methylation profile in adipose tissue [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Epidemiology, 2014
Adiposity is a risk factor for type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease, suggesting an important role for adipose tissue in the development of these conditions. The epigenetic underpinnings of adiposity are not well understood, and studies of DNA methylation in relation to adiposity have rarely focused on target adipose tissue.
