Adipose tissue has the largest capacity to store energy in the body and provides energy through the release of free fatty acids during times of energy need. Different types of immune cells are recruited to adipose tissue under various physiological conditions, indicating that these cells contribute to the regulation of adipose tissue. One major pathway influenced by a number of immune cells is the release of free fatty acids through lipolysis during both physiological (e.g., cold stress) and…

Immunological contributions to adipose tissue homeostasis.

The role of growth factors in white fat browning and metabolic disease

Evidence that continuous age-related changes in the adipose vasculature modulate fat mass, adipocyte function, insulin sensitivity and blood lipid profiles is produced, and a therapeutic potential of FGF10 modulating miRNAs for treatment of obesity and related metabolic diseases is suggested.

Adipose tissue lipolysis and remodeling during the transition period of dairy cows

Current knowledge on lipolysis in dairy cattle, expands on the new field of adipose tissue remodeling, and discusses how these biological processes affect transition cow health and productivity are summarized.

Oncostatin M promotes lipolysis in white adipocytes

OSM signalling directly promotes lipolysis in white adipocytes in an ERK1/2-dependent manner, and is shown to inhibit adipogenesis, suppress browning, and contribute to insulin resistance in cultured white adipocyte cell line.

Molecular pathways linking adipose innervation to insulin action in obesity and diabetes mellitus

This Review summarizes the latest literature, which suggests that adipocytes signal to local sensory nerve fibres in response to perturbations in lipolysis and lipogenesis, which causes sympathetic output to distant adipose depots and potentially other metabolic tissues to regulate systemic glucose homeostasis.

Role of adipose tissue inflammation in fat pad loss induced by fasting in lean and mildly obese mice.

Interplay of retinol binding protein 4 with obesity and associated chronic alterations

RBP4 promotes oxidative stress by decreasing endothelial mitochondrial function; it may serve as a useful biomarker in the diagnosis of obesity and prognosis of associated disease, as well as a potential therapeutic target for treatment of these diseases.

Inhibition of Lipolysis with Acipimox Attenuates Post-Burn White Adipose Tissue Browning and Hepatic Fat Infiltration.

Cutting FFA mobilization by Acipimox significantly decreased liver weight and intracellular fat accumulation, suggesting that it may also improve organ function post-burn, and validate the pharmacological inhibition of lipolysis as a potentially powerful therapeutic strategy to counteract the detrimental metabolic effects induced by burn.

Mechanisms Involved in Disruption of Adipose Tissue Mass Resulting from Chronic Unhealthy Alcohol Consumption.

  • 2016
The study by Crowell and colleagues (2016) tested the hypothesis that the reduction in WAT mass resulting from chronic alcohol consumption is associated with a decreased protein synthesis mediated by impaired function of mTOR complex 1, and showed progressive accretion of whole-body fat mass in control animals, resulting in an overall decrease in whole- body fat mass after 18 weeks of alcohol feeding.

In this chapter, disruption of inter-endothelial junctions between endothelial cells, significant increase in the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), inflammation mediators, which are originated from inflamed endothelium cells, the balance between NO synthesis and ROS , insulin signaling and NO production, and decrease in L-arginine/endogenous asymmetric dimethyl-L- arginine (ADMA) ratio are discussed in connection with endothelial dysfunction in obesity.

Lipolysis in lipid turnover, cancer cachexia, and obesity-induced insulin resistance

Dissecting adipose tissue lipolysis: molecular regulation and implications for metabolic disease.

An overview of the recent advances in the field of AT lipolysis is provided with particular focus on the molecular regulation of the two main lipases, ATGL and HSL, and the intracellular and extracellular signals affecting their activity.

Weight loss and lipolysis promote a dynamic immune response in murine adipose tissue.

It is found that the immune response to weight loss was dynamic; caloric restriction of high-fat diet-fed mice led to an initial increase in ATM recruitment, whereas ATM content decreased following an extended period of weight loss.

Inflammasome is a central player in the induction of obesity and insulin resistance

It is demonstrated that mice deficient in Nlrp3, apoptosis-associated speck-like protein, and caspase-1 were resistant to the development of high-fat diet-induced obesity, which correlated with protection from obesity-induced insulin resistance, and inhibition of the inflammasome is suggested as a potential therapeutic strategy.

Oncostatin m is produced in adipose tissue and is regulated in conditions of obesity and type 2 diabetes.

Examination of the expression of adipose tissue OSM in obese animals and humans suggests that OSM produced from immune cells in WAT acts in a paracrine manner on adipocytes to promote a proinflammatory phenotype in adiposes tissue.

Obesity is associated with macrophage accumulation in adipose tissue.

Transcript expression in perigonadal adipose tissue from groups of mice in which adiposity varied due to sex, diet, and the obesity-related mutations agouti (Ay) and obese (Lepob) found that the expression of 1,304 transcripts correlated significantly with body mass.

IL-21 Is a Major Negative Regulator of IRF4-Dependent Lipolysis Affecting Tregs in Adipose Tissue and Systemic Insulin Sensitivity

The data suggest that IL-21 exerts negative regulation on IRF4 and Treg activity, developing and maintaining adipose tissue inflammation in the obesity state.

Insulin resistance and increased lipolysis in bone marrow derived adipocytes stimulated with agonists of Toll-like receptors.

It is concluded that adipocytes express Toll-like receptors 1-10 and react to agonists specific for TLR 1-6, which may be important linking molecules in the generation of insulin resistance in fat tissue.

TWEAK prevents TNF-α-induced insulin resistance through PP2A activation in human adipocytes.

Overall, the data reveal a protective role of TWEAK in glucose homeostasis and identify PP2A as a new driver in the modulation of TNF-α signaling by sTWEAK.
