Building on these human genetic findings, insitro's CellML (TM) platform was used to screen genetically supported targets in primary human adipocytes using high-content imaging, transcriptomics, and ...

Most of the fat we carry is white adipose tissue, the body’s primary energy-storage system, designed to stockpile excess ...

MRI-derived abdominal adipose tissue is linked to chronic musculoskeletal pain in multiple sites. The association is stronger in women, suggesting sex differences in fat distribution and hormones.

Metabolic diseases such as obesity, fatty liver, and insulin resistance are rapidly increasing worldwide, but fundamental ...

New research from the University of Eastern Finland sheds light on the mechanisms associating obesity with inflammation by exploring tiny membrane particles, known as extracellular vesicles, secreted ...

A multicenter research effort in China conducted clinical trial testing of oral berberine for six months in diabetes-free ...

Obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular diseases are increasingly present in the population. Brown adipose tissue has a protective function against these prevalent diseases, as it burns calories and can ...

Increased volume of epicardial adipose tissue, detected by cardiovascular imaging, was found to be associated with greater myocardial injury after a myocardial infarction. These findings ...

New research reveals that microplastics infiltrate fat tissue, driving premature aging and inflammation, heightening the risk of chronic conditions such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Study: ...
