Most try their best to diet and exercise, but the weight remains stubbornly in the middle. It sticks to hips and thighs with a refusal to be removed, and it always seems that nothing can be done. This ...

This discovery not only unveils a novel mechanism by which BAT influences liver metabolism but also highlights miR-206-3p as ...

Discover how Adipotide, a promising peptide, could revolutionise our understanding of adipose tissue dynamics and metabolic regulation, paving the way for innovative therapies.

Some mammals are capable of hibernating during periods of low food availability in an effort to conserve energy and survive. While it is easy to understand why species have evolved this survival ...

1 Introduction Adipose tissue (AT) dysfunction represents a central pathophysiological process in obesity-related metabolic disorders. In health, AT maintains metabolic homeostasis by dynamically ...

Study in a Sentence: Scientists use human adipose tissue, or fat tissue, to study how fat cells from people with obesity burn energy at different stages of diabetes and after weight loss surgery.

“The first is what triggers the inflammatory response in adipose tissue that occurs in the setting of positive energy balance and drives storage rather than release.” ...

Notch signaling plays important roles in vascular development (vasculogenesis and angiogenesis) and homeostasis. NOTCH signaling is also active in adipose tissue and contributes to adipocyte ...

Starvation response A set of metabolic adaptions in response to reduced energy intake. This involves the mobilization of energy reserves such as glycogen, fat and proteins through the catabolism of ...
