Effect of 6-month calorie restriction on biomarkers of longevity, metabolic adaptation, and oxidative stress in overweight individuals: a randomized controlled trial.

TL;DR: The findings suggest that 2 biomarkers of longevity (fasting insulin level and body temperature) are decreased by prolonged calorie restriction in humans and support the theory that metabolic rate is reduced beyond the level expected from reduced metabolic body mass.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reduced Adipose Tissue Oxygenation in Human Obesity: Evidence for Rarefaction, Macrophage Chemotaxis, and Inflammation Without an Angiogenic Response

TL;DR: Adipose tissue rarefaction might lie upstream of both low AT pO2 and inflammation in obesity, and novel approaches to treat the dysfunctional AT found in obesity are suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
