Adipocytes are metabolically active cells; they produce signalling lipids and metabolites and secrete protein factors (adipokines) The relative levels of these lipids, proteins and metabolites change ...
Adiponectin is an adipokine produced by adipose tissue. The present studies examined the in vitro release of adiponectin by human omental adipose tissue explants as well as the mRNA content of freshly ...
We examined the effects of activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)α, PPARγ, and both of them in combination in obese diabetic KKAy mice and investigated the mechanisms by which ...
Dr. Yizhi Sun, an assistant professor of biochemistry, will speak on Wednesday, Oct. 29. In his talk, he will share key discoveries from his research that provide new insights into the interplay ...
Fish oils (FOs) have anti-inflammatory effects and lower serum triglycerides. This study examined adipose and muscle inflammatory markers after treatment of humans with FOs and measured the effects of ...
Depression is a debilitating mental illness and is often comorbid with metabolic disorders such as type 2 diabetes. Adiponectin is an adipocyte-derived hormone with antidiabetic and ...
Diabetes has become a leading cause of morbidity and mortality and the prevention and management of diabetes is now a major global health concern. While recent studies link obesity with diabetes, ...
WAT and BAT function antagonistically–WAT stores energy and BAT releases energy. The balance between these two cell types changes over an organisms' lifetime. The major microscopic constituent of ...
