Obesity is associated with increased prevalence of metabolic disorders, such as
inflammation, insulin resistance, and dyslipidemia, which can predispose an individual to …

Obesity is one of the biggest public health concerns identified by an increase in adipose
tissue mass as a result of adipocyte hypertrophy and hyperplasia. Pertaining to the …

Adipose tissue evolved to efficiently store energy for times of caloric restriction. The large
caloric excess common in many Western diets has negated the need for this thrifty function …

The discovery of adipokines has revealed adipose tissue as a central node in the interorgan
crosstalk network, which mediates the regulation of multiple organs and tissues. Adipose …

For a long time it has been known that obesity (adiposity) is linked to insulin resistance.
Recently, many investigators have reported that adipocytes secrete a variety of bioactive …

Over the past few decades, our understanding of the role of adipose tissue has changed
dramatically. Far from simply being a site of energy storage or a modulator of the endocrine …

Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease is a major health problem around the world. Obesity
is a primary risk factor for atherosclerosis and is associated with increased morbidity and …

Obesity is increasingly prevalent and is associated with substantial cardiovascular risk.
Adipose tissue distribution and morphology play a key role in determining the degree of …

In this article, we discuss inflammation associated with adipose tissue dysfunction as a
potential link with obesity‐related insulin resistance, and how obesity‐related inflammatory …

Characterized by a surplus of whole-body adiposity, obesity is strongly associated with the
prognosis of atherosclerosis, a hallmark of coronary artery disease (CAD) and the major …
