Digestive Diseases, 2012
Until a decade ago, fat tissue had been exclusively considered as an endocrine organ. The emerging functional characterization of adipokines as well as adipocytes and preadipocytes suggested for the first time a close link between the endocrine and the immune system. This is emphasized by the changes of the expression pattern of adipokines when the fat

Visceral fat and gut inflammation
Nutrition, 2012The etiology of inflammatory bowel disease and, in particular, Crohn's disease involves a deregulated mucosal immune system under the influence of intestinal flora and environmental factors in genetically susceptible individuals. A new hypothesis has focused on mesenteric fat hypertrophy and the presence of ectopic fat surrounding inflamed bowel, the ...

Biomarkers of dysfunctional visceral fat
2022Dysfunctional visceral fat plays a key role in the initiation and maintenance of chronic inflammation, liver steatosis and subsequent systemic insulin resistance that primes the body for development of metabolic syndrome. These changes, occurring with or without obesity, lead to type 2 diabetes. In this chapter, we first provide a brief overview of the

Visceral Fat Analysis at CT Colonography
Academic Radiology, 2006Obesity is associated with increased risks for colorectal neoplasia. Few studies have examined quantitative body fat measurements as predictors of colorectal polyps. The objective is to determine whether visceral fat is associated with colorectal polyps at computed tomography (CT) colonography.Case (n = 25) and control (n = 25) subjects with proven ...

Obesity, visceral fat and Crohnʼs disease
Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition and Metabolic Care, 2010Increasing evidence indicates that adipose tissue is an active endocrine organ involved in metabolic syndrome and regulation of inflammation. Visceral fat accumulation is a hallmark of both obesity and Crohn's disease. Here, we present recent data describing the immune properties of intra-abdominal adipose tissue that could link the innate immune ...

Genetics of abdominal visceral fat levels
American Journal of Human Biology, 1999The purpose of this review is to explore the evidence accumulated thus far that suggests a genetic component to the observed variation in abdominal visceral fat (AVF) levels. The precise determination of AVF levels in humans is limited to methods such as computerized tomography and magnetic resonance imaging; thus, few studies have examined the role of

Pathophysiology and Pathogenesis of Visceral Fat Obesity
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 1993Based on the analysis of fat distribution by CT scanning, we have proposed a classification of obesity: visceral fat obesity, in which fat accumulation is predominant in the intra-abdominal cavity. This type of obesity is more frequently accompanied by disorders of glucose and lipid metabolism, and also with hypertension, than subcutaneous fat obesity.
