Adipose tissue, which is primarily composed of adipocytes, is crucial for maintaining energy
and metabolic homeostasis. Adipogenesis is thought to occur in two stages: commitment of …

Nutritional factors play a life-long role in human health. Indeed, there is growing evidence
that one of the mechanisms by which nutrients and bioactive compounds affect metabolic …

Body mass index (BMI), a proxy measure for obesity, is determined by both environmental
(including ethnicity, age, and sex) and genetic factors, with> 400 BMI-associated loci …

Adipose tissue is traditionally categorized into white and brown relating to their function and
morphology. The classical white adipose tissue builds up energy in the form of triglycerides …

During the aging process, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) exhibit declined
osteogenesis accompanied by excess adipogenesis, which will lead to osteoporosis. Here …

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are ligand-modulated nuclear
receptors that play pivotal roles in nutrient sensing, metabolism, and lipid-related processes …

Obesity is one of the biggest public health concerns identified by an increase in adipose
tissue mass as a result of adipocyte hypertrophy and hyperplasia. Pertaining to the …

Obesity is a major risk factor for a myriad of diseases, affecting> 600 million people
worldwide. Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified hundreds of genetic …

Understanding mechanotransduction in adipocytes is important for research of obesity and
related diseases. We cultured 3T3-L1 preadipocytes on elastic substrata and applied static …

Adipose tissue is the largest endocrine organ in humans and has an important influence on
many physiological processes throughout life. An increasing number of studies have …
