21. Adipocyte-derived hormones and cardiovascular disease
Sammanfattning : Obesity is increasing globally and related to major changes in lifestyle. This increase is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Knowledge about adipose tissue as a metabolic-endocrine organ has increased during the last few decades. LÄS MER
22. Adipocyte ion channels and metabolic control
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
23. Central adipocyte functions in specialized caveolae
Sammanfattning : Obesity and overweight is an increasing health problem in the world. Besides reducing quality of life obesity is a great risk factor for development of diseases such as type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and stroke. The adipose tissue is a flexible organ that grows in size if the body is provided with excess energy. LÄS MER
24. A comprehensive dynamic model of the adipocyte
Sammanfattning : The adipose tissue contributes to energy homeostasis by storing excess energy as triglycerides when the energy status is high, and by releasing fatty acids when the energy status is low. In addition to the involvement in energy homeostasis, the adipose tissue also has a function of hormonal control exerted by the release of adipokines such as adiponectin. LÄS MER
25. Adipocyte phosphatases and the antilipolytic action of insulin
Sammanfattning : Adipose tissue is the main site of energy storage of the body and an important endocrine organ. Knowledge of the regulation of fat metabolism and the endocrine factors secreted by the adipocyte is crucial for the understanding of diseases such as obesity and diabetes. Insulin is the main antilipolytic hormone. LÄS MER
