Dysfunction in this tissue contributes to metabolic disorders and poses a significant risk for heart disease. Two types of ...

Here, we report an antiobesity therapy based on targeted induction of apoptosis in the vasculature of adipose tissue ... sequence to the fat vasculature of obese mice resulted in obesity reversal ...

but without negatively impacting heart function. The researchers used a mouse model of obesity by feeding male mice a high-fat, high-sucrose diet over several weeks before switching to a “standard” ...

Scientists studied body fat, also known as adipose tissue, from two groups of ... Next, researchers found similar epigenetic changes to fat cells in mice. In another experiment, they put obese ...

The mice were divided into groups based on exposure to a high-fat diet and subsequent weight loss. Adipose tissue samples were obtained from the mice. After the nuclei from the cells were isolated ...

Furthermore, epicardial adipose mass might reflect intra-abdominal visceral fat. Therefore, we propose that echocardiographic assessment of this tissue could serve as a reliable marker of visceral ...

A CNIC study published in Nature Communications reveals that caveolae in adipocytes help safely store excess fat, preventing ...
