Exercise Induces White Adipose Tissue Browning Across the Weight Spectrum in Humans

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
While the effect of exercise on white adipose tissue browning and metabolic improvement in rodents is clear, there are few studies in humans with inconclusive results.

Physiological role of adipose tissue: white adipose tissue as an endocrine and secretory organ [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Nutrition Society, 2001
The traditional role attributed to white adipose tissue is energy storage, fatty acids being released when fuel is required. The metabolic role of white fat is, however, complex. For example, the tissue is needed for normal glucose homeostasis and a role in inflammatory processes has been proposed. A radical change in perspective followed the discovery

Biomedical Application of Cold Plasma: Navigating Through Plasma Types and Devices by Antimicrobial Effectiveness and Tissue Tolerance

open access: yesAdvanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Cold plasma devices (J‐Plasma, Piezo Brush PZ3, Plasma Care) generate unique reactive species that penetrate tissues differently, enabling biofilm eradication while preserving tissue health. This study uncovers plasma‐device interactions with biofilms and surfaces, highlighting tailored applications for precision medicine and infection control ...

FGF21 resistance is not mediated by downregulation of beta-klotho expression in white adipose tissue

open access: yesMolecular Metabolism, 2017
Objective: Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) is an endocrine hormone that regulates metabolic homeostasis. Previous work has suggested that impairment of FGF21 signaling in adipose tissue may occur through downregulation of the obligate FGF21 co ...

Macrophage HM13/SPP Enhances Foamy Macrophage Formation and Atherogenesis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Previous research suggests that AIP may prevent atherogenic foamy macrophage formation. This study reveals that AIP, via its chaperone interaction with AHR, inhibits p38‐c‐JUN‐mediated transactivation of HM13, which encodes the ERAD protease HM13/SPP. HM13/SPP promotes foamy macrophage formation in addition to atherogenesis and plaque foamy macrophage ...

Adipose-Derived Stem Cells: Isolation, Characterization, and Differentiation Potential

open access: yesCell Transplantation, 2013
In mammals, the two main types of adipose tissues, white and brown adipose tissues, exert different physiological functions. White adipose tissue (WAT) is for storing energy, while brown adipose tissue (BAT) is for energy consumption.

The Impact of the Adipose Organ Plasticity on Inflammation and Cancer Progression

open access: yesCells, 2019

The Mechanism of White and Brown Adipocyte Differentiation [PDF]

open access: yesDiabetes & Metabolism Journal, 2013
Obesity gives vent to many diseases such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia, being considered as the main causes of mortality and morbidity worldwide.

Capsaicin induces browning of white adipose tissue and counters obesity by activating TRPV1 channel‐dependent mechanisms

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, 2016
The growing epidemic of obesity and metabolic diseases necessitates the development of novel strategies to prevent and treat such diseases. Current research suggests that browning of white adipose tissue (WAT) promotes energy expenditure to counter ...

Short-term oleoyl-estrone treatment affects capacity to manage lipids in rat adipose tissue [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Background: Short-term OE (oleoyl-estrone) treatment causes significant decreases in rat weight mainly due to adipose tissue loss. The aim of this work was to determine if OE treatment affects the expression of genes that regulate lipid metabolism in ...
