Epicardial adipose tissue in contemporary cardiology

open access: yesNature Reviews Cardiology, 2022
Interest in epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is growing rapidly, and research in this area appeals to a broad, multidisciplinary audience. EAT is unique in its anatomy and unobstructed proximity to the heart and has a transcriptome and secretome very different from that of other fat depots.

EPICARDIAL ADIPOSE TISSUE AND CORONARY ARTERY PLAQUE CHARACTERISTICS

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 2010
Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of coronary atherosclerosis. The association of EAT volume with type of coronary artery plaque on computed tomography angiography (CTA) is not known.Coronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring and EAT volume measurement were performed on 214 consecutive patients (mean age 54+/-14 years ...

T regulatory lymphocytes and FoxP3 nuclear translocation in various adipose tissue depots in patients with coronary artery disease

open access: yesМедицинская иммунология, 2023
T regulatory lymphocytes (Treg) are present is adipose tissue. Their frequency, as well as the level of FoxP3 nuclear translocation, in epicardial and thymus adipose tissue remains unexplored.

Epicardial Adipose Tissue [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation: Cardiovascular Imaging, 2015
The obesity epidemic has emerged as one of the most critical public health problems worldwide that is closely associated with the development of metabolic and cardiovascular disease.1 With increasing obesity, adipose tissue accumulates in multiple body compartments both within and surrounding internal organs with potential to negatively alter their ...

Recent Progress in Epicardial and Pericardial Adipose Tissue Segmentation and Quantification Based on Deep Learning: A Systematic Review

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Epicardial and pericardial adipose tissues (EAT and PAT), which are located around the heart, have been linked to coronary atherosclerosis, cardiomyopathy, coronary artery disease, and other cardiovascular diseases. Additionally, the volume and thickness

Aging Effects on Epicardial Adipose Tissue [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging, 2021
Epicardial fat is the visceral fat of the heart. Epicardial fat is a white adipose tissue, but it displays also brown-fat like or beige fat features. Under physiological conditions, epicardial fat has cardioprotective functions such as free fatty acids supply and thermoregulation of the adjacent myocardium.

Epicardial adipose tissue and atrial fibrillation [PDF]

open access: yesCardiovascular Research, 2014
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most frequent cardiac arrhythmia in clinical practice. AF is often associated with profound functional and structural alterations of the atrial myocardium that compose its substrate. Recently, a relationship between the thickness of epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) and the incidence and severity of AF has been reported ...

Epicardial Adipose Tissue and Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
BackgroundAtrial fibrillation (AF) often occurs after cardiac surgery and is associated with increased risk of stroke and mortality. Prior studies support the important role of inflammation in the pathogenesis of postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF). It is known that an increased volume and a pro-inflammatory phenotype of epicardial adipose tissue (

Investigating interactions between epicardial adipose tissue and cardiac myocytes: what can we learn from different approaches? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Heart disease is a major cause of morbidity and mortality throughout the world. Some cardiovascular conditions can be modulated by lifestyle factors such as increased exercise or a healthier diet, but many require surgical or pharmacological ...

Epicardial Adipose Tissue and Renal Disease [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Medicine, 2019
Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is derived from splanchnic mesoderm, localized anatomically between the myocardium and pericardial visceral layer, and surrounds the coronary arteries. Being a metabolically active organ, EAT secretes numerous cytokines, which moderate cardiovascular morphology and function. Through its paracrine and vasocrine secretions,
