Obesity is associated with low-grade chronic inflammation. Indeed, adipose tissues (AT) in
obese individuals are the former site of progressive infiltration by pro-inflammatory immune …

The pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin (IL)-17 (also known as IL-17) has been associated
with induction of tissue inflammation. Obese individuals exhibit many symptoms of chronic …

IL-17 is an inflammatory cytokine associated with anti-microbial host defense and
pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases. Obesity is considered to be an inflammatory …

Inflammatory mediators have the potential to impact a surprising range of diseases,
including obesity and its associated metabolic syndrome. In this paper, we show that the …

Proinflammatory cytokines are critically involved in the alteration of adipose tissue biology
leading to deterioration of glucose homeostasis in obesity. Here we show a pronounced …

The immune system is closely linked to human metabolic diseases. Serum levels of IL-6
increase with obesity and insulin resistance. Not only does IL-6 decrease the insulin …

Obesity, through low-grade inflammation, can drive insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes.
While infiltration of adipose tissue (AT) with mononuclear cells (MNCs) is well established in …

Obesity is associated with numerous inflammatory conditions including atherosclerosis,
autoimmune disease and cancer. Although the precise mechanisms are unknown, obesity …

Background Obesity has become a global challenge for public health. It has been reported
that obesity is associated with chronic inflammation. However, the mechanism for the …

Obesity is driven by chronic low-grade inflammation resulting from dysregulated immune cell
accumulation and function in white adipose tissue (WAT). Interleukin-33 (IL-33) is a key …
