Diagnostics, 2021 (1) Background: Perivascular adipose tissue attenuation, measured with computed tomography imaging, is a marker of mean local vascular inflammation since it reflects the morphological changes of the fat tissue in direct contact with the vessel.

Perivascular adipose tissue contains functional catecholamines [PDF]
Pharmacology Research & Perspectives, 2014 AbstractThe sympathetic nervous system and its neurotransmitter effectors are undeniably important to blood pressure control. We made the novel discovery that perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) contains significant concentrations of catecholamines. We hypothesized thatPVATcontains sufficient releasable catecholamines to affect vascular function.

Perivascular adipose tissue and coronary atherosclerosis [PDF]
Heart, 2018 Adipose tissue (AT) is no longer viewed as a passive, energy-storing depot, and a growing body of evidence supports the concept that both quantitative and qualitative aspects of AT are critical in determining an individual’s cardiometabolic risk profile.

Perivascular Adipose Tissue and Vascular Perturbation/Atherosclerosis [PDF]
Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2020 Atherosclerosis is orchestrated by complex interactions between vascular and inflammatory cells. Traditionally, it has been considered to be an intimal inflammatory disease, characterized by endothelial dysfunction, inflammatory cell recruitment, lipid oxidation, and foam cell formation. This inside-out signaling paradigm has been accepted as dogma for

Perivascular adipose tissue and vascular disease [PDF]
Clinical Lipidology, 2011 Perivascular adipose tissue is a local deposit of adipose tissue surrounding the vasculature. Perivascular adipose tissue is present throughout the body and has been shown to have a local effect on blood vessels. The influence of perivascular adipose tissue on the vasculature changes with increasing adiposity.

Perivascular Adipose Tissue [PDF]
, 2019 Key Concepts:- While traditionally viewed as little more than a simple lipid reserve, perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) boasts an extensive biological arsenal which when mobilized can modulate vascular function.- PVAT dysfunction in disease is associated with alteration to its secretory profile which can create a contractile and pro-inflammatory ...

Ovariectomy Causes Degeneration of Perivascular Adipose Tissue
Journal of Oleo Science, 2021 Women are more resistant than men to the development of vascular diseases. However, menopause is a factor leading to deterioration of female vascular integrity, and it is reported that the risk of vascular diseases such as atherosclerosis and abdominal aortic aneurysm is increased in postmenopausal women.

Regulation of vascular smooth muscle tone by adipose-derived contracting factor. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Obesity and arterial hypertension, important risk factors for atherosclerosis and coronary artery disease, are characterized by an increase in vascular tone. While obesity is known to augment vasoconstrictor prostanoid activity in endothelial cells, less

Role of Perivascular Adipose Tissue in Vein Remodeling. [PDF]
Arterioscler Thromb Vasc BiolPerivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) plays a crucial, yet underexplored, role in vein remodeling, which occurs after bypass surgery using a venous graft or creation of arteriovenous fistulae for hemodialysis access. PVAT exhibits significant heterogeneity in phenotype and tissue composition depending on the vascular bed, as well as its anatomic location ...

Медицинская иммунология, 2019 Perivascular adipose tissue surrounds most large blood vessels and plays an important role in vascular homeostasis. Recent studies have shown that perivascular adipose tissue effects vasodilation and vasoconstriction, which indicates that the ...
