Maternal obesity and resistance to breast cancer treatments among offspring: Link to gut dysbiosis

Cancer Reports, Volume 5, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background About 50 000 new cases of cancer in the United States are attributed to obesity. The adverse effects of obesity on breast cancer may be most profound when affecting the early development; that is, in the womb of a pregnant obese mother.

FatSegNet : A Fully Automated Deep Learning Pipeline for Adipose Tissue Segmentation on Abdominal Dixon MRI [PDF]

, 2019
Purpose: Development of a fast and fully automated deep learning pipeline (FatSegNet) to accurately identify, segment, and quantify abdominal adipose tissue on Dixon MRI from the Rhineland Study - a large prospective population-based study. Method: FatSegNet is composed of three stages: (i) consistent localization of the abdominal region using two 2D ...

Robust acute myeloid leukemia engraftment in humanized scaffolds using injectable biomaterials and intravenous xenotransplantation

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Patient‐derived xenografts (PDXs) can be improved by implantation of a humanized niche. We tested different biomaterials and approaches, and demonstrate that the combination of an injectable biomaterial for scaffold creation plus an intravenous route for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) xenotransplantation provide the most convenient and robust approach to

Sex differences in body composition in youth with type 1 diabetes and its predictive value in cardiovascular disease risk assessment

Diabetes/Metabolism Research and Reviews, Volume 39, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Women with type 1 diabetes (T1D) are more susceptible than men to cardiovascular disease (CVD). Signs of increased risk may already appear among adolescent girls. Objectives We explored the contribution of body composition to the development of CVD risk factors among youth with T1D.

Computational modeling of the physical features that influence breast cancer invasion into adipose tissue [PDF]

APL Bioengineering 8 (2024) 036104
Breast cancer invasion into adipose tissue strongly influences disease progression and metastasis. The degree of cancer cell invasion into adipose tissue depends on numerous biochemical and physical properties of cancer cells, adipocytes, and other key components of adipose tissue.

PVAT and Its Relation to Brown, Beige, and White Adipose Tissue in Development and Function

Frontiers in Physiology, 2018
Adipose tissue is commonly categorized into three types with distinct functions, phenotypes, and anatomical localizations. White adipose tissue (WAT) is the major energy store; the largest depots of WAT are found in subcutaneous or intravisceral sites ...

Systems biology of human adipocytes: from genes and molecular networks to heterogeneity and metabolic phenotypes [PDF]

, 2018
Obesity and its co-morbidities are among the leading health problems facing the developed world. Multiple genetic and environmental factors are known to have a significant impact on obesity development, however, heterogeneity of adipose tissue also ...

Positive feedback loop between MAPK and aquaporin 7 regulates autophagy and apoptosis induced by palmitate in RIN‐m5f cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
T2DM is characterized by peripheral blood insulin resistance and progressive pancreatic β‐cell dysfunction. Here, we showed that AQP7, the only aquaglyceroporin protein, regulates autophagy and apoptosis in pancreatic β‐cells. We propose the existence of a positive feedback loop between MAPK signaling and AQP7 that regulates autophagy and apoptosis in ...

Brown adipose tissue and regulation of human body weight

Diabetes/Metabolism Research and Reviews, Volume 39, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Approximately 30% of the global population is affected by obesity. Traditional non‐surgical measures for weight loss have limited efficacy and tolerability. Therefore, there is a need for novel, effective therapies. Brown adipose tissue (BAT) has been implicated in physiological energy expenditure, indicating that it could be ...
