Inflammation in the white adipose tissue (WAT) is considered a major player in the
development of insulin resistance. The role of macrophages accumulating in the WAT during …

Recent findings, notably on adipokines and adipose tissue inflammation, have revised the
concept of adipose tissues being a mere storage depot for body energy. Instead, adipose …

Background—Adipose tissue inflammation may play a critical role in the pathogenesis of
insulin resistance (IR). The present study examined the role of lymphocytes in adipose …

Obesity, defined as the excess development of adipose tissue, is an important risk factor for
metabolic and cardiovascular diseases such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension and …

Obesity is now recognised as a low grade, chronic inflammatory disease that is linked to a
myriad of disorders including cancer, cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes (T2D) …

Besides adipocytes, specialized in lipid handling and involved in energy balance regulation,
white adipose tissue (WAT) is mainly composed of other cell types among which …

Obesity is accompanied by the development of chronic low-grade inflammation in adipose
tissue. The presence of chronic inflammatory response along with metabolically harmful …

Obesity is characterised by a chronic state of low-grade inflammation in different tissues
including the vasculature. There is a causal link between adipose tissue (AT) inflammation …

Obesity-associated inflammation stems from a combination of cell-intrinsic changes of
individual immune cell subsets and the dynamic crosstalk amongst a broad array of immune …

Immune cells are present in the adipose tissue (AT) and regulate its function. Under lean
conditions, immune cells predominantly of type 2 immunity, including eosinophils, M2-like …
