Adipose tissue as a medium for epidemiologic exposure assessment.
In the United States, adipose tissue is rarely used as a medium for assessment of prior exposures in epidemiologic studies. Adipose tissue aspirations are in general less invasive and carry less risk than phlebotomy. Tissue samples can be analyzed for a wide number of epidemiologically important exposures. Beyond reflecting long-term energy balance, this tissue offers a relatively stable depot ...

15 صفحه اولExposure to omentum adipose tissue conditioned medium from obese pregnant women promotes myometrial artery dysfunction
AIM Underlying mechanisms of poor pregnancy outcome in obese (OB) mothers (body mass index [BMI] ≥ 30 kg/m2 ) are unknown. Our studies demonstrate that OB pregnant women have altered myometrial artery (MA) function related to the thromboxane and nitric oxide pathways. In obesity, increased central fat mass is associated with an altered endocrine milieu. We tested the hypothesis that in OB pregn...
متن کاملEchocardiographic Epicardial Adipose Tissue as a New Indicator of Cardiovascular Risk
Abstract Background and Purpose: Epicardial fat is the true visceral fat located around the heart, particularly around sub-epicardial coronary arteries that may locally interact and modulate the coronary arteries and myocardium through paracrine or vasocrine secretion of anti-inflammatory and proatherogenic cytokines. Most previous studies have used echocardiography and reported controversia...
