Leptin, Adiponectin, and Other Adipokines in Regulation of Adipose Tissue Angiogenesis
Adipose tissue plays an important endocrine role through the production of secreted factors, termed adipokines. These include hormones such as leptin, adiponectin, resistin, omentin, apelin, and vaspin; classical cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor-α,

Adipose Angiogenesis Models in Animals and Methodology
Adipose tissue angiogenesis plays a crucial role in the organism as blood vessels are required to supply nutrients and oxygen to the adipose tissue and to remove metabolic waste products.

A technique for subcutaneous abdominal adipose tissue biopsy via a nondiathermy method [PDF]
Adipose tissue biopsies offer tissue samples that, upon analysis, may provide insightful overviews of mechanisms relating to metabolism and disease. To obtain subcutaneous adipose tissue biopsies in the abdominal area, researchers and physicians use ...

Anatomy of the Epicardial Adipose Tissue
Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is the fat depot located between the myocardium and the epicardium including the surroundings of the epicardial coronary vessels while the pericardial fat is located externally.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging of the Epicardial Adipose Tissue
Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is a measurable risk factor and marker of visceral adipose tissue. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is considered the gold standard technique to measure the adipose tissue, also because it does not require ionizing ...

The PPARy ligand rosiglitazone influences triacylglycerol metabolism in non-obese males, without increasing the transcriptional activity of PPARy in the subcutaneous adipose tissue [PDF]
PPAR¿ is obligatory for fat mass generation and is thought to determine the amount of TAG stored per fat cell. We investigated whether ligand availability for PPAR¿ is rate limiting in fat mass generation and substrate metabolism.

Adipose-Tissue-Specific Expression of Pig ApoR Protects Mice from Diet-Induced Obesity
Fat deposition is one of the most important economic traits of pigs. Decreasing the subcutaneous fat and increasing the intramuscular fat are believed to be an effective way to improve pork quality, which is one of the main goals of pig breeding ...
