Effects of white adipose tissue grafts on total body fat and cellularity are dependent on graft type and location.
Surgical removal of body fat (lipectomy) triggers compensatory increases in nonexcised white adipose tissue (WAT), thus restoring adiposity levels in many species, including Siberian hamsters. In Siberian hamsters, when their lipectomized WAT is transplanted to another site (autologous grafts, no net change in body fat), healthy grafts result, but the lipectomy-induced compensatory increases in...
متن کاملRelationship between white tea and adipose tissue metabolism: The importance and necessity of future research regarding the effect of white tea on fat oxidation, compared to other Kinds of tea: Letter to the Editor
Obesity is a complex multifactorial disease. The worldwide prevalence of obesity has doubled since 1980 to an extent that nearly a third of the world’s population is now classified as overweight or obese. On the other hand, sports scientists have suggested exercise for the prevention of further spread of this disease. In addition to exercise, the use of natural fat-burning supplements, such as ...
متن کاملWhite adipose tissue grafts--keeping in contact.
WHITE ADIPOSE TISSUE is no longer viewed as a somewhat unglamorous organ but has instead emerged as one of the current “hot spots” in physiological and biomedical research. Two key developments underlie this change. One is the rapid rise in the incidence of obesity, which now affects nearly one-third of adult Americans (2) and more than one in five of adults in the United Kingdom (14). Obesity ...
متن کاملRadiographic comparison of the repaired bone in maxillary alveolar cleft of dog by tissue engineering and autogenous bone grafting techniques
BACKGROUND: Dental disease, trauma and maxillofacial surgeries can cause alveolar bone defects. Among different kinds of treatment, autogenous bone grafts is accepted as a golden standard. On the other hand, because of limitation of treatment with autogenous bone grafts, osteogenic cells derived from stem cells are suggested. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to compare the mean density of ...
متن کاملThe Role of Inflammation and Changes of Adipose Tissue-Resident Immune Cells in Increasing the Risk of Cancer: A Narrative Review
The incidence of obesity, as a major health problem, has increased significantly over the past decades. This condition is associated with an increased risk of cancers, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases. The current study aimed to investigate the effects of inflammation and changes of adipose tissue-resident immune cells on increasing the risk of cancer in obese individuals. In obesit...
