PVAT and Its Relation to Brown, Beige, and White Adipose Tissue in Development and Function
Frontiers in Physiology, 2018 Adipose tissue is commonly categorized into three types with distinct functions, phenotypes, and anatomical localizations. White adipose tissue (WAT) is the major energy store; the largest depots of WAT are found in subcutaneous or intravisceral sites ...

HOXC10 suppresses browning of white adipose tissues [PDF]
Experimental & Molecular Medicine, 2017 Given that increased thermogenesis in white adipose tissue, also known as browning, promotes energy expenditure, significant efforts have been invested to determine the molecular factors involved in this process. Here we show that HOXC10, a homeobox domain-containing transcription factor expressed in subcutaneous white adipose tissue, is a suppressor ...

EGCG Reduces Obesity and White Adipose Tissue Gain Partly Through AMPK Activation in Mice
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2018 (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), which is the most abundant catechin in green tea, has many potential health benefits, including decreased weight gain and/or adipose tissue weight. Suggested mechanisms for body weight reduction by EGCG include: (1)

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 ...

Visceral Adipose Tissue Inflammatory Factors (TNF-Alpha, SOCS3) in Gestational Diabetes (GDM): Epigenetics as a Clue in GDM Pathophysiology [PDF]
, 2020 Gestational diabetes (GDM) is among the most challenging diseases in westernized countries, affecting mother and child, immediately and in later life. Obesity is a major risk factor for GDM.

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
