Formerly considered fat storage, adipose tissue is now recognized as a vital ... at UD's Center for Bioinformatics and Computational Biology and Delaware INBRE, as well as a research professor ...

Dr Kos, who leads the adipose tissue biology group at the University of Exeter, said where obese people carry their fat can have an impact on their health. Scarring of fat tissue can change a ...

Changes in systemic metabolism can influence adipose-tissue biology and functions, including morphologic features, the activity of metabolic enzymes, lipogenic transcription factors, and histone ...

The researchers compared the effects of different fatty acids on adipose tissue biology and insulin sensitivity. The researchers found that, compared with SFA-HFD fed mice, MUFA-HFD fed mice ...

“When things affect fat, it affects our entire body.” Body fat, or adipose tissue, is a complex organ. It contains fat cells, nerves, immune cells, and connective tissue. Its main job is to ...

Obesity has been found to reduce mitochondrial gene expression in fat or adipose tissue in the body. A reduction in the expression of these genes can affect how our bodies process energy. The twin ...

Mammary adipose tissue has long been recognized for its essential role in breast biology. It consists of many different cell types, including fat cells (adipocytes), immune cells, sympathetic ...

Studies in animals indicate that brown adipose tissue is important in the regulation of body weight, and it is possible that individual variation in adaptive thermogenesis can be attributed to ...
