Subcutaneous adipocyte size and body fat distribution.
BACKGROUND Both body fat distribution and adipocyte size are associated with metabolic abnormalities. OBJECTIVE We defined the extent to which subcutaneous adipocyte size is related to regional fat mass and to the sizes of adipocytes in other subcutaneous depots independent of adiposity, age, and sex. DESIGN Data collected from 188 women and 133 men who were 18-50 y old and who had a body m...
متن کاملSubcutaneous Adipose Cell Size and Distribution: Relationship to Insulin Resistance and Body Fat
OBJECTIVE Metabolic heterogeneity among obese individuals may be attributable to differences in adipose cell size. We sought to clarify this by quantifying adipose cell size distribution, body fat, and insulin-mediated glucose uptake in overweight to moderately-obese individuals. METHODS A total of 148 healthy nondiabetic subjects with BMI 25-38 kg/m2 underwent subcutaneous adipose tissue bio...
متن کاملBody size and subcutaneous fat patterning in adolescence.
Factors that influence low birth weight at term may also be associated with subcutaneous fat patterning in later life. This hypothesis was investigated in a comparative (retrospective) cohort study. The subjects, born in Cardiff between 1975 and 1977, were of mean age 15.7 years. Cases (low birth weight (< 2500 g) at term) were matched with controls (normal birth weight (3000-3800 g) at term) f...
متن کاملShort-term longitudinal changes in subcutaneous fat distribution and body size among Japanese women in the third decade of life.
This research clarified the changes in body shape among Japanese women aged in their 20's, by measuring the subcutaneous fat distribution over the whole body and its circumference at certain points. The subjects, 13 healthy women, were measured twice, once in their early 20's and 5 years later in their late 20's. Subcutaneous fat thickness was measured at 14 points on the body using the B-mode ...
متن کاملVisceral Adipocyte Hypertrophy is Associated With Dyslipidemia Independent of Body Composition and Fat Distribution in Women
OBJECTIVE We assessed whether subcutaneous and omental adipocyte hypertrophy are related to metabolic alterations independent of body composition and fat distribution in women. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Mean adipocyte diameter of paired subcutaneous and omental adipose tissue samples was obtained in lean to obese women. Linear regression models predicting adipocyte size in both adipose tiss...
