Metabolic and Ultrastructural Changes Induced in Adipose Tissue by Insulin
The addition in vitro of insulin to rat adipose tissue (epididymal) produces marked metabolic changes which may be followed by measurement of the net gas exchange of the tissue. Using this method to monitor the metabolic action of insulin, concomitant observations with the electron microscope on the tissue have been made. These reveal that pronounced morphological changes are induced by insulin...
متن کاملInsulin-Induced Changes in Skeletal Muscle Microvascular Perfusion are Regulated by Perivascular Adipose Tissue in Women
Rationale Obesity increases the risk of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes, at least partly through its association with microvascular dysfunction and insulin resistance. In the skeletal muscle microcirculation of obese subjects, insulin’s vasodilator effects are impaired, reducing insulin-induced glucose delivery and uptake. Here, we studied whether perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) c...
متن کاملInsulin Degradation by Adipose Tissue
A systematic study of the degradation of physiological concentrations of 125I-labelled insulin was performed in intact fat-pads, isolated adipocytes and subcellular fractions of isolated adipocytes. The findings indicate that insulin is rapidly degraded to low-molecular-weight peptides and/or amino acids by the intact tissue and isolated cells. Of the total insulin-degradation products present ...
متن کاملObesity-induced inflammatory changes in adipose tissue.
Obesity is associated with a state of chronic, low-grade inflammation. Two manuscripts in this issue of the JCI (see the related articles beginning on pages 1796 and 1821) now report that obese adipose tissue is characterized by macrophage infiltration and that these macrophages are an important source of inflammation in this tissue. These studies prompt consideration of new models to include a...
متن کاملCold-Induced Changes in Gene Expression in Brown Adipose Tissue, White Adipose Tissue and Liver
Cold exposure imposes a metabolic challenge to mammals that is met by a coordinated response in different tissues to prevent hypothermia. This study reports a transcriptomic analysis in brown adipose tissue (BAT), white adipose (WAT) and liver of mice in response to 24 h cold exposure at 8°C. Expression of 1895 genes were significantly (P<0.05) up- or down-regulated more than two fold by cold e...
