While most tissues exhibit their greatest growth during development, adipose tissue is
capable of additional massive expansion in adults. Adipose tissue expandability is …

The perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) is an adipose tissue depot which surrounds most
human blood vessels. It is metabolically active and has both a protective and a pathogenic …

Background Epicardial and pericardial adipose tissue (EAT and PAT) surround and protect
the heart, with EAT directly sharing the microcirculation with the myocardium, possibly …

Background In recent years, peri-organ fat has emerged as a diagnostic and therapeutic
target in metabolic diseases, including diabetes mellitus. Here, we performed a …

Epicardial adipose tissue (eAT) is a metabolically active fat depot that has been associated
with a wide array of cardiac homeostatic functions and cardiometabolic diseases. A full …

Background: Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) surrounds the heart and the coronary vessels.
EAT produces pro-and anti-inflammatory cytokines. Several studies have already …

Melatonin is involved in various functions such as the timing of circadian rhythms, energy
metabolism, and body mass gain in experimental animals. However, its effects on adipose …

Adipose tissue is a central metabolic organ classified as white adipose tissue (WAT),
composed primarily of white and beige adipocytes, and brown adipose tissue (BAT). In …

The human heart and adjoining great vessels consist of multiple cell types vital for life, yet
many remain uncharacterised molecularly during development. Here, we performed a high …
