Cardiac adipose tissue and atrial fibrillation: the perils of adiposity.
The amount of adipose tissue that accumulates around the atria is associated with the risk, persistence, and severity of atrial fibrillation (AF). A strong body of clinical and experimental evidence indicates that this relationship is not an epiphenomenon but is the result of complex crosstalk between the adipose tissue and the neighbouring atrial myocardium. For instance, epicardial adipose ti...
متن کاملCellularity of porcine adipose tissue: effects of growth and adiposity.
Adipose tissue, from two depots in pigs of three breeding groups with different propensities to fatten, was characterized in terms of weight of the adipose tissue organ, adipose cell number, and mean cell volume as determined by electronic counting of adipose cells fixed with osmium tetroxide. Perirenal and extramuscular adipose tissue growth was accompanied by progressive adipose cell enlargem...
متن کاملVisceral Adiposity Index: An Indicator of Adipose Tissue Dysfunction
The Visceral Adiposity Index (VAI) has recently proven to be an indicator of adipose distribution and function that indirectly expresses cardiometabolic risk. In addition, VAI has been proposed as a useful tool for early detection of a condition of cardiometabolic risk before it develops into an overt metabolic syndrome. The application of the VAI in particular populations of patients (women wi...
متن کاملAdiposity is associated with DNA methylation profile in adipose tissue.
BACKGROUND Adiposity is a risk factor for type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease, suggesting an important role for adipose tissue in the development of these conditions. The epigenetic underpinnings of adiposity are not well understood, and studies of DNA methylation in relation to adiposity have rarely focused on target adipose tissue. Objectives were to evaluate whether genome-wide DNA me...
متن کاملMetabolic effects associated with adipose tissue distribution.
Cardiovascular and metabolic risk depends not only on the overall obesity but also fat distribution is more powerfull predictor for risk factors. Adipose tissue produces and secretes a variety of bioactive peptides - adipokines The most recently described adipocyte secretory proteins contribute to the pathogenesis of impaired insulin secretion and insulin resistance, endothelial dysfunction, a ...
