Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

The Relationship Between Epicardial Adipose Tissue and Visceral Adiposity Indexes in Individuals Without Established Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease and Diabetes Mellitus

open access: yesEndocrinology Research and Practice, 2023
Objective: Visceral adipose tissue performs an important role in the development of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Expressing its close association with epicardial adipose tissue simplifies the understanding of visceral adipose tissue in terms ...

Assessing Visceral Obesity and Abdominal Adipose Tissue Distribution in Healthy Populations Based on Computed Tomography: A Large Multicenter Cross-Sectional Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition, 2022
ObjectiveAbdominal adipose is closely related to many endocrine and metabolic diseases. The aim of this study was to analyze the distribution of abdominal adipose tissue in a healthy population in northern China determined by abdominal computed ...

Separate and combined associations of body-mass index and abdominal adiposity with cardiovascular disease: collaborative analysis of 58 prospective studies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
BACKGROUND: Guidelines differ about the value of assessment of adiposity measures for cardiovascular disease risk prediction when information is available for other risk factors. We studied the separate and combined associations of body-mass index (BMI),

Effects of IGFBP4 deficiency on human preadipocyte proliferation and differentiation through the IGF1R/AKT pathway

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
IGFBP4 knockdown (KD) impairs preadipocyte proliferation and is associated with IGF1R protein downregulation and attenuated AKT phosphorylation. The mechanisms by which IGFBP4 KD influences the IGF1R/AKT signaling pathway involve newly synthesized proteins and lysosomal degradation pathways. Created in BioRender.

Clinical indices and anthropometric measures for magnetic resonance imaging-defined visceral adiposity across the hypercortisolism spectrum

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology
ObjectiveConventional anthropometric measures may inadequately capture metabolically relevant fat redistribution in hypercortisolism. We evaluated the discriminative performance of clinical indices (Hepatic Steatosis Index [HSI], Visceral Adiposity Index

Obesity Subtypes and Longitudinal Trajectories of Function Over Seven Years of Follow‐Up: Data From the Multicenter Osteoarthritis Study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Obesity, defined by body mass index (BMI) ≥30 kg/m2, is a risk factor for functional limitations in people with knee osteoarthritis (OA). However, function varies among such individuals. Our objective was to evaluate the implications of obesity subtypes on longitudinal patterns of physical functioning in people with or at risk for knee OA ...

Intelligent Orthopedics: Machine Learning in Diagnosis of Bone Disease, Implants, and Bone Health Monitoring

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Efficient recovery from traumatic or degenerative diseases is a great challenge, even after all the advancements in bone and cartilage regeneration. Machine learning (ML) algorithms have presented opportunities to enhance these aspects by accurately analyzing imaging data.

Cardiometabolic index predicts postoperative atrial fibrillation after isolated CABG: ROC-based comparison with BMI and visceral adiposity indices

open access: yesBiomolecules & Biomedicine
The assessment of visceral adipose tissue activity has gained significance in cardiac risk stratification. This study evaluates the predictive performance of novel visceral adiposity indices in determining the risk of postoperative atrial fibrillation ...

The visceral adiposity index is associated with insulin sensitivity and IGF-I levels in adults with growth hormone deficiency [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The visceral adiposity index, based on anthropometric and metabolic parameters, has been shown to be related to adipose tissue function and insulin sensitivity.
