The Sex and Race Specific Relationship between Anthropometry and Body Fat Composition Determined from Computed Tomography: Evidence from the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis. [PDF]

, 2015
BackgroundFew studies have investigated the relationship of anthropometric measurements with computed tomography (CT) body fat composition, and even fewer determined if these relationships differ by sex and race.MethodsCT scans from 1,851 participants in

Subcutaneous fat mass is associated with genetic risk scores related to proinflammatory cytokine signaling and interact with physical activity in middle-aged obese adults

Nutrition & Metabolism, 2019
Background and aims Subcutaneous fat mass is negatively correlated with atherogenic risk factors, but its putative benefits remain controversial. We hypothesized that genetic variants that influence subcutaneous fat mass would modulate lipid and glucose ...

Ethnic differences in adiposity and diabetes risk – insights from genetic studies [PDF]

, 2020
Type 2 diabetes is more common in non-Europeans and starts at a younger age and at lower BMI cut-offs. This review discusses the insights from genetic studies about pathophysiological mechanisms which determine risk of disease with a focus on the role of

Depot-Specific Changes in Fat Metabolism with Aging in a Type 2 Diabetic Animal Model. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Visceral fat accretion is a hallmark of aging and is associated with aging-induced metabolic dysfunction. PPARγ agonist was reported to improve insulin sensitivity by redistributing fat from visceral fat to subcutaneous fat. The purpose of this study was

Effectiveness of cryolipolysis for subcutaneous fat reduction: a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]

Surgical & Cosmetic Dermatology, 2021
Introduction: Cryolipolysis produces selective, controlled cooling, and it’s based on the concept that lipid-rich tissue is more susceptible to cold injury, reducing subcutaneous fat.

Short-term effects of glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists on fat distribution in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: an ultrasonography study [PDF]

, 2015
AIMS:Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RA) induce weight loss and reduction in adipose tissue, but the effects of GLP-1 RA on the distribution of fat deposits have been poorly investigated. METHODS: In 25 patients with type 2 diabetes (16

Comparative Transcriptomic Profiles of Differentiated Adipocytes Provide Insights into Adipogenesis Mechanisms of Subcutaneous and Intramuscular Fat Tissues in Pigs

Cells, 2022
Subcutaneous fat thickness and intramuscular fat content are closely related to meat production and quality in the pig industry. Adipogenesis in adipocytes from subcutaneous and intramuscular fat tissues involves different genes and regulatory mechanisms.

Rapid Depletions of Subcutaneous Fat Mass and Skeletal Muscle Mass Predict Worse Survival in Patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma Treated with Sorafenib

Cancers, 2019
The aim of this study was to investigate whether rapid depletions of fat mass and skeletal muscle mass predict mortality in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients treated with sorafenib. This retrospective study evaluated 61 HCC patients.
