Development of brown and white adipose tissue
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

Circadian control of white and brown adipose tissues
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.

Characterization of Cre recombinase models for the study of adipose tissue [PDF]
The study of adipose tissue in vivo has been significantly advanced through the use of genetic mouse models. While the aP2-CreBI and aP2-CreSalk lines have been widely used to target adipose tissue, the specificity of these lines for adipocytes has ...

Roles of FGFs as adipokines in adipose tissue development, remodeling, and metabolism
White and brown adipose tissues, which store and burn lipids, respectively, play critical roles in energy homeostasis. Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) are signaling proteins with diverse functions in development, metabolism, and neural function. Among

NPC1 in human white adipose tissue and obesity [PDF]
Abstract Background Genetic studies have implicated the NPC1 gene (Niemann Pick type C1) in susceptibility to obesity. Methods To assess the potential function of NPC1 in obesity, we determined its expression in abdominal white adipose tissue (WAT) in relation to obesity ...

Characterisation of human adipose tissue : ceramide metabolism, depot differences and evaluation of dysfunctionality [PDF]
Normal adipose tissue function is necessary for maintaining proper energy balance, as both excess and absence of this tissue lead to metabolic disturbances, such as insulin resistance.

Effects of Different Fasting Modes Combined with Exercise Training on Browning of White Adipose Tissue in Mice [PDF]
To investigate the effect of intermittent fasting (IF) combined with exercise on browning of white adipose tissue (WAT), we randomly divided male C57BL/6 mice aged 5–6 weeks into six groups: control (Con), exercise (Ex), alternate-day fasting (ADF ...

Lipolysis and lipases in white adipose tissue – An update [PDF]
Lipolysis is defined as the sequential hydrolysis of triacylglycerol (TAG) stored in cell lipid droplets. For many years, it was believed that hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) and monoacylglycerol lipase (MGL) were the main enzymes catalyzing lipolysis in the white adipose tissue.
