Adipose tissue plays an essential role in regulating energy balance through its metabolic,
cellular and endocrine functions. Adipose tissue has been historically classified into …

Adipose tissue is formed at stereotypic times and locations in a diverse array of organisms.
Once formed, the tissue is dynamic, responding to homeostatic and external cues and …

Obesity is characterized by increased adipose tissue mass and has been associated with a
strong predisposition towards metabolic diseases and cancer. Thus, it constitutes a public …

Recent advances regarding the biology of adipose tissue have demonstrated that white
adipose tissue (WAT) plays a central role in the regulation of energy balance and acts as a …

Adipose tissue is a complex, multicellular organ that profoundly influences the function of
nearly all other organ systems through its diverse metabolite and adipokine secretome …

Obesity and lipoatrophy are major risks for insulin resistance, non-insulin-dependent
diabetes and cardiovascular disease. In the past three decades, significant advances have …

The rising incidence of obesity and associated metabolic diseases has increased the
urgency in understanding all aspects of adipose tissue biology. This includes the function of …

Adipose tissue is an important site for lipid storage, energy homeostasis, and whole-body
insulin sensitivity. It is important to understand the mechanisms involved in adipose tissue …

The ability to maintain and expand the pool of adipocytes in adults is integral to the
regulation of energy balance, tissue/stem cell homeostasis, and disease pathogenesis. For …

Adipose tissue is a dynamic organ, well known for its function in energy storage and
mobilization according to nutrient availability and body needs, in charge of keeping the …
