Increased Macrophage Migration Into Adipose Tissue in Obese Mice
Macrophage-mediated inflammation is a key component of insulin resistance; however, the initial events of monocyte migration to become tissue macrophages remain poorly understood. We report a new method to quantitate in vivo macrophage tracking (i.e., blood monocytes from donor mice) labeled ex vivo with fluorescent PKH26 dye and injected into recipient mice. Labeled monocytes appear as adipose...
متن کاملInsulin degradation by adipose tissue is increased in human obesity.
White adipose tissue samples from obese and lean patients were used for the estimation of insulin protease and insulin:glutathione transhydrogenase using 125I-labeled insulin. There was no activity detected in the absence of reduced glutathione, which indicates that insulin is cleaved in human adipose tissue through reduction of the disulfide bridge between the chains. Obese patients showed hig...
متن کاملObesity is associated with macrophage accumulation in adipose tissue.
Obesity alters adipose tissue metabolic and endocrine function and leads to an increased release of fatty acids, hormones, and proinflammatory molecules that contribute to obesity associated complications. To further characterize the changes that occur in adipose tissue with increasing adiposity, we profiled transcript expression in perigonadal adipose tissue from groups of mice in which adipos...
متن کاملEpicardial Adipose Tissue Reflects the Presence of Coronary Artery Disease: Comparison with Abdominal Visceral Adipose Tissue
Accumulation of visceral adipose tissue is associated with a risk of coronary artery disease (CAD). The aim of this study was to examine whether different types of adipose tissue depot may play differential roles in the progression of CAD. Consecutive 174 patients who underwent both computed tomography (CT) and echocardiography were analyzed. Cardiac and abdominal CT scans were performed to mea...
متن کاملDoes osteopontin induce adipose tissue inflammation by local macrophage proliferation?
In this issue of Molecular Metabolism, Tardelli and colleagues analyzed the impact of osteopontin (OPN) on monocyte and macrophage proliferation in the context of obesity-driven adipose tissue inflammation [1]. Chronic low-grade inflammation of adipose tissue during obesity, a crucial contributor to insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and subsequent cardiovascular disease, is associated with a...
