14 However, it is not yet known whether the individual response to obesity (i.e., hyperplasia or hypertrophy of adipocytes) and its metabolic complications are genetic or acquired. We studied this ...

It is a key component in the finely tuned energy homeostasis of adipocytes and disturbances to this process can cause adipocytes to release more fatty acids into the bloodstream, which can lead to ...

Prof. Shan Tizhong's team at Zhejiang University discovered that lard derived from subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT), as a ...

For example, fat cells, also called adipocytes, and immune cells work in concert to communicate with the brain, muscles and ...

A transformative study has uncovered the pivotal role of the protein Naked cuticle homolog 2 (NKD2) in regulating the differentiation of bone-forming osteoblasts and bone-resorbing osteoclasts.

Both guanylin and uroguanylin trigger lipolysis in human visceral adipocytes. Given the lipolytic action of the guanylin system on visceral adipocytes, the herein reported decrease of circulating ...

Obesity is a significant risk factor for various metabolic diseases and, in many cases, causes ectopic fat accumulation (i.e.
