PVAT and Its Relation to Brown, Beige, and White Adipose Tissue in Development and Function

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
Adipose tissue is commonly categorized into three types with distinct functions, phenotypes, and anatomical localizations. White adipose tissue (WAT) is the major energy store; the largest depots of WAT are found in subcutaneous or intravisceral sites ...

DNA methylation in adipose tissue and metabolic syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Epigenetics is the study of heritable phenotype changes that do not involve alterations in the DNA sequence with the processes including DNA methylation, histone modifications and RNA-associated silencing [1,2].

Myeloid p38 activation maintains macrophage–liver crosstalk and BAT thermogenesis through IL‐12–FGF21 axis

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Physiological activation of myeloid p38 controls macrophage IL‐12 production and crosstalk to the liver by modulating hepatic FGF21, and subsequently, brown adipose tissue thermogenesis during obesity Abstract Obesity features excessive fat accumulation in several body tissues and induces a state of chronic low‐grade inflammation that contributes to ...

Early Overfeed-Induced Obesity Leads to Brown Adipose Tissue Hypoactivity in Rats

open access: yesCellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2013
Background/Aims: Brown adipose tissue activation has been considered a potential anti-obesity mechanism because it is able to expend energy through thermogenesis. In contrast, white adipose tissue stores energy, contributing to obesity.

Apolipoprotein F is reduced in humans with steatosis and controls plasma triglyceride‐rich lipoprotein metabolism

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Hepatic APOF transcript levels correlate inversely with plasma TG and hepatic steatosis in humans. ApoF expression in mice promotes VLDL‐TG production and lipoprotein remnant clearance in mice. Abstract Background NAFLD affects nearly 25% of the global population. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the most common cause of death among patients with NAFLD,

De novo reconstruction of human adipose transcriptome reveals conserved lncRNAs as regulators of brown adipogenesis

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Long non-coding RNAs are known to regulate mouse white adipose tissue development and brown adipose tissue program expression. Here, the authors construct a roadmap for human long non-coding RNAs expressed in fetal brown adipose tissue, adult omental and

The adipose tissue: something more than a reservoir of energy

open access: yesGrasas y Aceites, 2009
Adipose tissue is a reservoir of energy and also an organ that contributes to the aesthetics and health of human body working as an endocrine tissue. White adipose tissue, which is formed by unilocular adipose cells, can modify organic homeostasis by ...

Dingkun pill alleviates metabolic abnormalities in polycystic ovary syndrome through brown adipose tissue activation

open access: yesJournal of Ovarian Research, 2023
Background Traditional Chinese medicine has been used for a long time to treat a variety of gynecological diseases. Among various traditional Chinese medicine, Dingkun Pill (DK) has been used for the treatment of female gynecological diseases.

Adipose tissue plasticity in pheochromocytoma patients suggests a role of the splicing machinery in human adipose browning

open access: yesiScience, 2023
Summary: Adipose tissue from pheochromocytoma patients acquires brown fat features, making it a valuable model for studying the mechanisms that control thermogenic adipose plasticity in humans. Transcriptomic analyses revealed a massive downregulation of

Towards clinical translation of upscaled osteogenic grafts using human adipose tissue progenitors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Tissue engineering is an emerging strategy in medical field that focuses on regeneration or replacement of lost or damaged tissue and organs. Most of the tissues in human body have no or limited self renewal and regeneration potential which decrease with
