ROSENTHAL, J., A. ANGEL, AND J. FARKAS. Metabolic fate of leucine: a sign$kant sterol precursor in adipose tissue and muscle. Am. J. Physiol. 226(2) : 411-418. 1974.-The quantitative significance of muscle and adipose tissue as extrahepatic sites of leucine metabolism was studied. The rate of leucine conversion to either CO* or total lipid expressed per gram wet weight of tissue was adipose tis...

The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) has been implicated in a variety of adipose tissue functions, including tissue growth, differentiation, metabolism, and inflammation. Although expression of all components necessary for a locally derived adipose tissue RAS has been demonstrated within adipose tissue, independence of local adipose RAS component concentrations from corresponding plasma RAS fluct...

OBJECTIVE Macrophage recruitment to adipose tissue is a reproducible feature of obesity. However, the events that result in chemokine production and macrophage recruitment to adipose tissue during states of energetic excess are not clear. Sirtuin 1 (SirT1) is an essential nutrient-sensing histone deacetylase, which is increased by caloric restriction and reduced by overfeeding. We discovered th...
