Microscopic fat cell size measurements on frozen-cut adipose tissue in comparison with automatic determinations of osmium-fixed fat cells.
Diameters of fat cells in adipose tissue slices, floating in an isoosmolar solution, were measured under a microscope. The slices were obtained from percutaneous biopsies by freeze-cutting after brief formaldehyde fixation. All cells in a given part of the slice were measured, thus avoiding selection. A normal distribution of fat cell diameters could be demonstrated with this method, as has bee...
متن کاملInactivity and fat cell hyperplasia: fat chance?
IT IS NO SECRET THAT OBESITY and obesity-related metabolic disorders are rising unabated in the United States (5, 6), and this epidemic has not eluded children. From 1999 –2000 to 2003–2004, the prevalence of overweight children/adolescents increased from 13.8 to 16.0% for males and 14.0 to 18.2% for females (13). Of the three major actual causes of death (tobacco , poor diet, and physical inac...
متن کاملWomen and Size (Fat Studies)
A Socially Constructed Myth: A thin body ideal for women is prevalent in modern Western societies. Cultural images emphasize a thin and firm body (Bordo 2003). Feminists have labeled this ideal, found ubiquitously in fashion magazines, on television, and in other forms of mass media, a “tyranny of slenderness” (Chernin 1994) and an unrealistic and unattainable “beauty myth” (Wolf 1991). For mos...
متن کاملThylakoids reduce body fat and fat cell size by binding to dietary fat making it less available for absorption in high-fat fed mice
BACKGROUND Dietary thylakoids derived from spinach have beneficial effects on body fat accumulation and blood lipids as demonstrated in humans and rodents. Important mechanisms established include delayed fat digestion in the intestine, without causing steatorrhea, and increased fatty acid oxidation in intestinal cells. The objective of our study was to elucidate if increased fecal fat excretio...
