Clinical importance of epicardial adipose tissue
Different visceral fat compartments have several systemic effects and may play a role in the development of both insulin resistance and cardiovascular diseases. In the last couple of years special attention has been paid to the epicardial adipose tissue (EAT), which can be quantified by non-invasive cardiac imaging techniques. The epicardial fat is a unique fat compartment between the myocardiu...
متن کاملFactors Related to Epicardial Adipose Tissue Thickness
Dear Editor, We read the article by Akyüz et al. [1] with great interest. In their study, the authors concluded that the amount of epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) was higher in subjects with xanthelasma than in subjects without. We appreciate their investigation concerning the relationship between xanthelasma and EAT thickness. However, a number of well-known factors may independently affect EA...
متن کاملEpicardial adipose tissue and atrial fibrillation.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most frequent cardiac arrhythmia in clinical practice. AF is often associated with profound functional and structural alterations of the atrial myocardium that compose its substrate. Recently, a relationship between the thickness of epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) and the incidence and severity of AF has been reported. Adipose tissue is a biologically active orga...
متن کاملMesenchymal Stem Cells Derived from Rat Epicardial Versus Epididymal Adipose Tissue
Objective(s) Some investigation has indicated that adipose-derived stem cells possess different surface epitopes and differentiation potential according to the localization of fat pad from which the cells were derived. In the present study proliferation capacity and aging of such cells were explored. Materials and Methods Adherent cells were isolated from the collagenase digests of adipose tiss...
