The prevalence of obesity worldwide has led to an increase in the risk of metabolic diseases and socio-economical burdens. Brown adipose tissue (BAT) has been established as a promising therapeutic ...

Formerly considered fat storage, adipose tissue is now recognized as a vital endocrine organ. Dysfunction in the tissue is linked to significant cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. In the study ...

MRI-derived abdominal adipose tissue is linked to chronic musculoskeletal pain in multiple sites. The association is stronger in women, suggesting sex differences in fat distribution and hormones.

A recent study published in Engineering has unveiled a novel approach to generating functional organoids from human adult adipose tissue. This method, which bypasses traditional stem cell isolation ...

The adipose tissue, which serves as an endocrine organ, releases various molecules that regulate the repair of other damaged tissues, including the skin. Hence, adipose tissues can potentially be ...

New research from the University of Eastern Finland sheds light on the mechanisms associating obesity with inflammation by exploring tiny membrane particles, known as extracellular vesicles, secreted ...

New research reveals that microplastics infiltrate fat tissue, driving premature aging and inflammation, heightening the risk of chronic conditions such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Study: ...

The volume of epicardial adipose tissue was independently associated with new-onset atrial fibrillation (AF) in individuals without a history of the condition. Patients with the highest volumes of ...
