Perivascular adipose tissue as a relevant fat depot for cardiovascular risk in obesity [PDF]
Obesity is associated with increased risk of premature death, morbidity, and mortality from several cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), including stroke, coronary heart disease (CHD), myocardial infarction, and congestive heart failure.

Perivascular adipose tissue is a part of blood vessel wall, regulating endovascular homeostasis, endothelial and smooth muscle cells functioning. Under physiological conditions, perivascular tissue provides beneficial anticontractile effect, though ...

Perivascular adipose tissue in autoimmune rheumatic diseases
Perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) resides at the outermost boundary of the vascular wall, surrounding most conduit blood vessels, except for the cerebral vessels, in humans. A growing body of evidence suggests that inflammation localized within PVAT may contribute to the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease (CVD).

Perivascular Adipose Tissue Inflammation in Ischemic Heart Disease [PDF]
Objective: There is growing recognition that adipose tissue–derived proatherogenic mediators contribute to obesity-related cardiovascular disease. We sought to characterize regional differences in perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) phenotype in relation to atherosclerosis susceptibility ...

Adipose tissue is an important secretory organ, but less is known about the secretory activity of perivascular fat. Here the authors use proteomics analysis on secretomes from perivascular fat to identify neuronal growth regulator 1 as an adipocyte ...

High fat diet attenuates the anticontractile activity of aortic PVAT via a mechanism involving AMPK and reduced adiponectin secretion [PDF]
Background and aim: Perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) positively regulates vascular function through production of factors such as adiponectin but this effect is attenuated in obesity.

Renal perivascular adipose tissue: Form and function [PDF]
Renal sympathetic activity affects blood pressure in part by increasing renovascular resistance via release of norepinephrine (NE) from sympathetic nerves onto renal arteries. Here we test the idea that adipose tissue adjacent to renal blood vessels, i.e.

Perivascular adipose tissue mediated aortic reactivity data: Female lean and obese Zucker rats
Perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) is recognized as a paracrine organ that controls vascular function. One of the early data demonstrated PVAT from male Sprague-Dawley rats altered aortic vascular reactivity [1].
