Targeting adipose tissue
Two different types of adipose tissues can be found in humans enabling them to respond to starvation and cold: white adipose tissue (WAT) is generally known and stores excess energy in the form of triacylglycerol (TG), insulates against cold, and serves as a mechanical cushion. Brown adipose tissue (BAT) helps newborns to cope with cold. BAT has the capacity to uncouple the mitochondrial respir...
متن کاملLessons on Conditional Gene Targeting in Mouse Adipose Tissue
Conditional gene targeting has been extensively used for in vivo analysis of gene function in adipocyte cell biology but often with debate over the tissue specificity and the efficacy of inactivation. To directly compare the specificity and efficacy of different Cre lines in mediating adipocyte specific recombination, transgenic Cre lines driven by the adipocyte protein 2 (aP2) and adiponectin ...
متن کاملAdipose Tissue
Morphological changes associated with mobilization of lipid were studied in epididymal adipose tissue from fasted and from alloxan diabetic rats. In both groups of animals a decrease in lipid content was accompanied by the formation of complex frond-like cytoplasmic processes and of loops and folds of basement membrane which extended from cell surfaces. These changes, evident after 1 day of fas...
متن کاملPTPIP51 in adipose tissue
Protein tyrosine phosphatase interacting protein51 (PTPIP51) interacts both in vit ro and in v ivo withPTP1B, a protein tyrosine phosphatase involved in cellularregulation. PTPIP51 is known to be expressed in manydifferent types of tissues. It is involved in cellular processessuch as proliferation, differentiat ion and apoptosis. Never-theless, the exact cellular functio...
متن کاملSubcutaneous adipose tissue classification
The developments in the technologies based on the use of autologous adipose tissue attracted attention to minor depots as possible sampling areas. Some of those depots have never been studied in detail. The present study was performed on subcutaneous adipose depots sampled in different areas with the aim of explaining their morphology, particularly as far as regards stem niches. The results dem...
