Lactate and the GPR81 receptor in metabolic regulation: implications for adipose tissue function and fatty acid utilisation by muscle during exercise [PDF]
, 2011 Lactate is increasingly recognised to be more than a simple end product of anaerobic glycolysis. Skeletal muscle and white adipose tissue are considered to be the main sites of lactate production and release.

Aortic carboxypeptidase-like protein enhances adipose tissue stromal progenitor differentiation into myofibroblasts and is upregulated in fibrotic white adipose tissue. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 White adipose tissue expands through both adipocyte hypertrophy and hyperplasia and it is hypothesized that fibrosis or excess accumulation of extracellular matrix within adipose tissue may limit tissue expansion contributing to metabolic dysfunction ...

Mitochondrial function/dysfunction in white adipose tissue
Experimental Physiology, 2014 New Findings What is the topic of this review?The review covers basic knowledge about the role of mitochondria in the homeostatic function of adipose tissue. It also provide a comprehensive analysis of how mitochondrial function is affected during obesity and lipoatrophies and discuss the results of recent studies that targeted mitochondrial function ...

Imaging White Adipose Tissue with Confocal Microscopy [PDF]
, 2014 Adipose tissue is composed of a variety of cell types that include mature adipocytes, endothelial cells, fibroblasts, adipocyte progenitors, and a range of inflammatory leukocytes. These cells work in concert to promote nutrient storage in adipose tissue depots and vary widely based on location. In addition, overnutrition and obesity impart significant

White adipose tissue coloring by intermittent fasting [PDF]
Cell Research, 2017 Intermittent fasting (IF) has been shown to promote metabolic health in several organisms. Two recent papers show that IF induces white adipose tissue beiging and increases thermogenesis, which improves metabolic health in mice.

A percutaneous needle biopsy technique for sampling the supraclavicular brown adipose tissue depot of humans. [PDF]
, 2015 Brown adipose tissue (BAT) has been proposed as a potential target tissue against obesity and its related metabolic complications. Although the molecular and functional characteristics of BAT have been intensively studied in rodents, only a few studies ...

New concepts in white adipose tissue physiology [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2014 Numerous studies address the physiology of adipose tissue (AT). The interest surrounding the physiology of AT is primarily the result of the epidemic outburst of obesity in various contemporary societies. Briefly, the two primary metabolic activities of white AT include lipogenesis and lipolysis.

Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Adipocytes as a Primary Cause of Adipose Tissue Inflammation [PDF]
Diabetes & Metabolism Journal, 2019 Adipose tissue inflammation is considered a major contributing factor in the development of obesity-associated insulin resistance and cardiovascular diseases. However, the cause of adipose tissue inflammation is presently unclear.
