Cultured preadipocytes derived from the stromal-vascular fraction of adipose tissue have been shown to accumulate sufficient triglycerides to assume adipocyte morphology when exposed to high concentrations of very low density lipoprotein.

Lipoprotein lipase is active as a monomer
Significance Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) plays a central role in plasma lipid metabolism, hydrolyzing the triglycerides in lipoproteins and releasing fatty acid nutrients for vital tissues. LPL is synthesized by adipocytes and myocytes and secreted into the interstitial spaces, whereupon it is captured by an endothelial cell protein, GPIHBP1 ...

Fetal growth restriction is associated with placental metabolic adaptations. In small‐for‐gestational‐age placenta (SGA), cholesterol receptors and steroidogenic enzymes are upregulated, enhancing steroidogenesis. NAD salvage pathway is also increased to support NADP+/NADPH requirements.

Abstract Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a major global health concern strongly associated with atherosclerosis and subsequent macrovascular complications. These complications are the leading cause of death among T2D patients. Despite a decline in cardiovascular events over the last decade, individuals with T2D still have an approximately doubled risk ...

Abstract Background Angiopoietin‐like protein 3 (ANGPTL3) is a key circulating regulator of triglyceride metabolism and a promising pharmacological target. The physiological consequences of profound ANGPTL3 deficiency can be explored in individuals with inherited loss‐of‐function (LOF) variants, who show reduced lifetime risk of atherosclerotic ...

ABSTRACT Introduction This narrative review explores the epidemiological evidence and potential underlying pathophysiological defects underlying the disproportionately greater risk of Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and cardiometabolic disease in people of South Asian and African Caribbean ancestry compared with White Europeans.

ABSTRACT Excess adiposity is not a recently developed problem but has existed since at least the upper Paleolithic, allowing evolutionary selection pressures to adapt the physiology of the pregnant woman and the feto‐placental unit for maternal and fetal protection.

The activity of lipoprotein lipase in the vascular bed represents the major pathway by which triglyceride fatty acid is cleared from the plasma and made available to the epripheral tissues. Recent studies on the properties of the enzyme, both solubilized and membrane-bound have provided new information on the regulation of its activity with the major ...

Understanding exosomes in diabetic wound healing
Abstract Background Diabetic wounds signify a major complication of diabetes mellitus, characterized by chronic inflammation, compromised angiogenesis, and high risk of infection, amputation, and mortality. Contemporary therapies remain limited in efficacy and durability.

The effects of bed rest on cardiometabolic health: A systematic review and meta‐analysis
Abstract Horizontal bed rest (HBR) and head‐down tilt (HDT) are models of physical inactivity. In this systematic review and meta‐analysis, we aimed to quantify changes in cardiometabolic outcomes during HBR and HDT in healthy adults. Following the PRISMA guidelines, we searched PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science and Cochrane Library until 1 October 2025 ...
