Comparison on the Scattering Path Loss of Terahertz Waves in Fat Layer Under Air-Enclosed and Tissue-Enclosed Conditions

Chronic Caffeine Ingestion Down-Regulates Liver and Visceral Adipose Tissue Inflammatory Gene Expression in High-Fat Diet-Induced Obesity

Intermittent fasting, which can effectively reduce obesity and improve the related metabolic syndrome has become an exciting research area in recent years. Adipose tissue is pivotal regulating metabolism determining occurrence of obesity. In current study, we aimed to investigate effects acute fasting (AF) on fat tissue. Mice were subjected AF for 36 h, receiving normal chow (low-fat diet [LFD]...

normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa background: adipose tissue as an endocrine organ secretes adiponectin that is a cardiovascular atherosclerosis-modulating factor. however, some studies showed that adiponectin reduces obesity. in the present study, adiponectin association with body mass index (bmi), waist circumference (wc), visceral adipose tissue (vat) and subcutaneous visceral ti...

purpose the inflammatory state of adipose tissue in obese subjects may be the most important factor linking increased adipose tissue mass to insulin resistance. chemerin is a newly discovered adipokine that plays an important role in macrophage infiltration into adipose tissue and may contribute to the development of inflammation and insulin resistance. we examined the effects of 12 weeks of ae...

This paper presents numerical modeling and experimental validation of the signal path loss at 5.8 GHz Industrial, Scientific, Medical (ISM) band, performed in context fat-intrabody communication (fat-IBC), a novel intrabody platform using body-omnipresent fat tissue as key wave-guiding medium. Such work extends our previous works 2.0 2.4 characterization its performance other useful frequency r...

Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is a visceral depot of the heart fat, which has high plasticity and directly contact with myocardium coronary arteries. fat unique paracrine organ closely anatomically physiologically related to myocardium. Recent studies have repeatedly confirmed role epicardial in progression cardiovascular diseases. The accumulation EAT, measured by using new non-invasive imag...

Studies over the last several years have revealed important roles of the body fat content, caloric intake and nutrition, insulin/IGF-1 signaling systems, and pathways involved in oxidative stress and control of protein acetylation on life span. Although the discovery of longevity genes supports the concept that life span is genetically determined, adipose tissue seems to be a pivotal organ in t...
