Characteristics and mechanisms of subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissue aging
Aging 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 ...

An integrated single cell and spatial transcriptomic map of human white adipose tissue
Single-cell studies of human white adipose tissue (WAT) provide insights into the specialized cell types in the tissue. Here the authors combine publicly available and newly generated high-resolution and bulk transcriptomic results from multiple human ...

Adipose tissue: colors, depots and functions
Obesity is a chronic disease characterized by excessive accumulation of adipose tissue. The prevalence of obesity and associated diseases has prompted researchers to expand the study of the biology of adipose tissue.

Immune Cells Gate White Adipose Tissue Expansion [PDF]
The immune system plays a critical role in white adipose tissue (WAT) energy homeostasis and, by extension, whole-body metabolism. Substantial evidence from mouse and human studies firmly establishes that insulin sensitivity deteriorates as a result of subclinical inflammation in the adipose tissue of individuals with diabetes.

Dielectric properties measurements of brown and white adipose tissue in rats from 0.5 to 10 GHz [PDF]
Brown adipose tissue (BAT) plays an important role in whole body metabolism and with appropriate stimulus could potentially mediate weight gain and insulin sensitivity.

Glucocorticoid Receptor and Adipocyte Biology. [PDF]
Glucocorticoids are steroid hormones that play a key role in metabolic adaptations during stress, such as fasting and starvation, in order to maintain plasma glucose levels.

Dexamethasone Inhibits White Adipose Tissue Browning
White adipose tissue (WAT) regulates energy balance through energy storage, adipokines secretion and the thermogenesis process. Beige adipocytes are responsible for WAT thermogenesis. They are generated by adipogenesis or transdifferentiation during cold or β3-adrenergic agonist stimulus through a process called browning.
