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

Characteristics and mechanisms of subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissue aging
Chinese Journal of Plastic and Reconstructive SurgeryAging is one of the most significant health challenges worldwide and is a primary cause of chronic diseases and physiological decline. Among the myriad changes that occur with aging, alterations in adipose tissue distribution and function have gained ...

Metabolic effects of FGF-21: thermoregulation and beyond [PDF]
, 2015 Fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-21, a member of the FGF family, is a novel hormone involved in the control of metabolism by modulating glucose homeostasis, insulin sensitivity, ketogenesis, and promoting adipose tissue “browning.” Recent studies ...

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 ...

Taurine-mediated browning of white adipose tissue is involved in its anti-obesity effect in mice
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2019 Taurine, a nonprotein amino acid, is widely distributed in almost all animal tissues. Ingestion of taurine helps to improve obesity and its related metabolic disorders.
