Angiogenesis modulates adipogenesis and obesity.
نویسنده
چکیده
Substantial evidence shows that neoplastic and nonneoplastic tissue growth is dependent on angiogenesis. Neovascularization and adipogenesis are temporally and spatially coupled processes during prenatal life and they continue to reciprocally interact via paracrine signaling systems throughout adult life. Activated adipocytes produce multiple angiogenic factors including leptin, angiopoietins, HGF, GM-CSF, VEGF, FGF-2, and TGF-beta, which either alone or collectively stimulate neovascularization during fat mass expansion. Thus antiangiogenic agents provide a novel therapeutic option for prevention and treatment of human obesity and its related disorders.

Endostatin Prevents Dietary-Induced Obesity by Inhibiting Adipogenesis and Angiogenesis.
Endostatin is a well-known angiogenesis inhibitor. Although angiogenesis has been considered as a potential therapeutic target of obesity, the inhibitory effect of endostatin on adipogenesis and dietary-induced obesity has never been demonstrated. Adipogenesis plays a critical role in controlling adipocyte cell number, body weight, and metabolic profile in a homeostatic state. Here we reveal th...
متن کاملAngiogenesis and obesity.
Development of obesity is associated with substantial modulation of adipose tissue structure, involving adipogenesis, angiogenesis, and extracellular matrix remodelling. These processes require proteolytic activity, provided mainly by the fibrinolytic (plasminogen/plasmin), matrix metalloproteinase, and ADAM/ADAMTS systems. In early-stage development of adipose tissue, adipogenesis is tightly a...
متن کاملParacrine regulation of angiogenesis and adipocyte differentiation during in vivo adipogenesis.
With an increasing incidence of obesity worldwide, rational strategies are needed to control adipogenesis. Growth of any tissue requires the formation of a functional and mature vasculature. To gain mechanistic insight into the link between active adipogenesis and angiogenesis, we developed a model to visualize noninvasively and in real time both angiogenesis and adipogenesis using intravital m...
متن کاملObesity and vascular risk.
Obesity is a common disorder and a known risk factor for vascular thrombotic complications. Development of obesity is associated with extensive modifications in adipose tissue involving adipogenesis, angiogenesis and extracellular matrix proteolysis. Studies using a nutritionally induced obesity model in transgenic mice support a role of the fibrinolytic (plasminogen/plasmin) and matrix metallo...
متن کاملInteraction of Adipogenesis and Angiogenesis in Dietary-Induced Obesity
Chronic overnutrition and lack of physical activity result in excess deposition of adipose tissue and insulin resistance, which play key roles in the pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes and associated cardiovascular disease (1). The expansion of adipose tissue mass in dietary-induced obesity involves both hyperplasia and hypertrophy of adipocytes, and these processes are associated with extensiv...
