Abstract. Seasonal rhythms of body weight, reflecting altered food intake, energy storage and expenditure, are a common feature of mammals inhabiting temperate and arctic latitudes. They have evolved so that predictable annual changes in the external environment can be anticipated and animals can adjust their physiology and behaviour in

Our results suggest that FSP27 contributes to efficient energy storage in WAT by promoting the formation of unilocular lipid droplets, thereby restricting lipolysis. (data not shown). Both subcutaneous and epididymal white adipocytes of FSP27-KO mice accumulated suggesting that the increased energy expenditure of

The worldwide epidemic of obesity and type 2 diabetes has greatly increased interest in the biology and physiology of adipose tissues. Adipose (fat) cells are specialized for the storage of energy in the form of triglycerides, but research in the last few decades has shown that fat cells also play a critical role in sensing and responding to

Adipose tissue is the primary site of energy storage, playing important roles in health. While adipose research largely focuses on obesity, fat also has other critical functions, producing adipocytokines and contributing to normal nutrient metabolism, which in turn play important roles in satiety and total energy homeostasis.

Bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) may contribute to partition of energy storage into visceral and subcutaneous fat depots. Esther Guiu-Jurado, Esther Guiu-Jurado. Core Unit, Animal Models of Obesity, IFB Adiposity Diseases, University of Leipzig, Leipzig, Germany.

Animals that had consumed medium and high levels of MEI had higher levels of internal fat with respect to carcass fat than animals on a low MEI diet. More specifically, omental, pelvic, and subcutaneous fat were seen to have a dramatic increase in animals fed an energy–protein supplementation and grazing . These studies indicate

In addition

Adipose (fat) cells are specialized for the storage of energy in the form of triglycerides, but research in the last few decades has shown that fat cells also play a critical role in sensing and responding to changes in systemic energy balance.

We assessed effects of overfeeding energy to nonlactating and nonpregnant Holstein cows during a length of time similar to a typical dry period on body lipid storage and the abundance of genes related to insulin signaling, inflammation, and ubiquitination in subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) in vitro challenged with insulin and recombinant

A HIV-associated lipodystrophic condition was recognized early in the epidemic, characterized by clinically apparent changes in subcutaneous, visceral, and dorsocervical adipose depots. Underlying these changes is altered adipose tissue morphology and expression of genes central to adipocyte maturation, regulation,

White adipose tissue is a highly active metabolic and endocrine organ containing adipocytes, connective tissue matrix, nerve tissue, stromovascular and immune cells and secretes many adipokines such as leptin, adiponectin, cytokines, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1, complements components, proteins of the renin-angiotensin system, and resistin, and

The gut microbiota affects appetite, energy absorption, fat storage, circadian rhythm, and chronic inflammation, leading to obesity. Therefore, targeted reconstruction of the gut microbiota structure, such as through fecal bacterial transplantation, is one of the means of treating obesity. Figure 1.

Subcutaneous adipose tissue represents about 85% of all body fat. Its major metabolic role is the regulated storage and mobilization of lipid energy. It stores

Mechanisms regulating subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) insulin sensitivity and gene network expression during the peripartal period were evaluated in cows fed to meet or exceed prepartal energy requirements. Holstein cows were dried off at -50 d relative to expected parturition and fed a controlled

The subcutaneous layer has many functions, including insulation, thermoregulation, shock absorption, structural support, and energy storage. Possible damage to the subcutaneous layer includes

Subcutaneous adipose tissue represents about 85% of all body fat. Its major metabolic role is the regulated storage and mobilization of lipid energy. It stores lipid in the form of triacylglycerol

The Functions of Fats. Fats serve useful functions in both the body and the diet. In the body, fat functions as an important depot for energy storage, offers insulation and protection, and plays important roles in regulating and signaling. Large amounts of dietary fat are not required to meet these functions, because most fat molecules can be

Adipocytes mainly function as energy storage and endocrine cells. Adipose tissues showed the biological and genetic difference based on their depots. The difference of adipocytes between depots might be influenced by the inherent genetic programing for adipogenesis. We used RNA-seq technique to inve

It is a loose connective tissue composed of fat cells, with individual cells being called adipocytes. [1] Adipocytes contain lipid droplets of stored triglycerides. These cells swell as they store fat and shrink when the fat is used for energy. Adipose tissue helps to store energy in the form of fat, cushion internal organs, and insulate the body.

White, brown, and beige AT differ in energy storage and use. Brown and beige AT consume glucose and lipids for thermogenesis and, theoretically, may provide greater metabolic benefit in transplantation. Here, the authors review the metabolic effects of AT transplantation. Results: Removal of subcutaneous human AT does not have beneficial

Overfeeding during the dry period may predispose cows to increased insulin resistance (IR) with enhanced postpartum lipolysis.
