Estimation of CT-derived abdominal visceral and subcutaneous adipose tissue depots from anthropometry in Europeans, South Asians and African Caribbeans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Background South Asians and African Caribbeans experience more cardiometabolic disease than Europeans. Risk factors include visceral (VAT) and subcutaneous abdominal (SAT) adipose tissue, which vary with ethnicity and are difficult to quantify using ...

E0771 and 4T1 murine breast cancer cells and interleukin 6 alter gene expression patterns but do not induce browning in cultured white adipocytes

open access: yesBiochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2019
Breast cancer remains a substantial clinical problem worldwide, and cancer-associated cachexia is a condition associated with poor prognosis in this and other malignancies.

Circadian control of white and brown adipose tissues

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Genetics & Development, 2023
White and brown adipose tissues are highly dynamic organs anticipating and responding to changes in the environment. The circadian timing system facilitates anticipation, and it is therefore not surprising that circadian disturbances, a prominent feature of modern 24/7 society, increase the risk for (cardio)metabolic diseases.

The anti-angiogenic herbal composition Ob-X inhibits adipose tissue growth in obese mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Objective: The growth and development of adipose tissue are thought to be associated with angiogenesis and extracellular matrix remodeling. Since the composition of the herbal extract called Ob-X has been shown to have both anti-angiogenic and matrix ...

Development of brown and white adipose tissue

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1975
In this review, it is assumed that the reader is familiar with the basic properties of white and brown adipose tissue. The role and metabolic characteristics of both tissues in adult mammals have been adequately and repeatedly reviewed (1-3) and will be mentioned here only insofar as they impinge upon developmental aspects. Macroscopically brown fat is

The regulation of adipocyte growth in white adipose tissue

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Adipocytes can increase in volume up to a thousand-fold, storing excess calories as triacylglycerol in large lipid droplets. The dramatic morphological changes required of adipocytes demands extensive cytoskeletal remodeling, including lipid droplet and plasma membrane expansion.

Isoenergetic feeding of low carbohydrate-high fat diets does not increase brown adipose tissue thermogenic capacity in rats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Low-carbohydrate, high-fat (LC-HF) diets are popular for inducing weight loss in overweighed adults. Adaptive thermogenesis increased by specific effects of macronutrients on energy expenditure has been postulated to induce this weight loss.

An update on brown adipose tissue and obesity intervention: Function, regulation and therapeutic implications

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
Overweight and obesity have become a world-wide problem. However, effective intervention approaches are limited. Brown adipose tissue, which helps maintain body temperature and contributes to thermogenesis, is dependent on uncoupling protein1.

Exercise and Fat: A Primer

open access: yesSports Medicine - Open
Over the past 25 years, adipose tissue has emerged as an organ comprising nearly 20 major cell types, including three types of adipocyte subtypes: white, brown, and beige.

Sex matters: The effects of biological sex on adipose tissue biology and energy metabolism

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2017
Adipose tissue is a complex and multi-faceted organ. It responds dynamically to internal and external stimuli, depending on the developmental stage and activity of the organism.
