Journal ArticleDOI

Omental and subcutaneous adipose tissues of obese subjects release interleukin-6: depot difference and regulation by glucocorticoid.

TL;DR: These data show for the first time that substantial quantities of IL-6 (up to 75 ng/mL) accumulate in the medium during incubations of both adipocytes and adipose tissue.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of omentin as a novel depot-specific adipokine in human adipose tissue: possible role in modulating insulin action

TL;DR: Central obesity is more closely associated with insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease than is peripheral obesity, but the underlying mechani... as discussed by the authors showed that central (visceral) obesity is associated with Type 2 diabetes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Omentin Plasma Levels and Gene Expression Are Decreased in Obesity

TL;DR: Omentin 1 and omentin 2 gene expression were decreased with obesity and were highly correlated with each other in visceral adipose tissue as mentioned in this paper, indicating that decreased Omentin levels are associated with increasing obesity and insulin resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulatory role for the arginine–nitric oxide pathway in metabolism of energy substrates

TL;DR: Modulation of the arginine-NO pathway through dietary supplementation with L-arginine or L-citrulline may aid in the prevention and treatment of the metabolic syndrome in obese humans and companion animals, and in reducing unfavorable fat mass in animals of agricultural importance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adipose tissue heterogeneity: implication of depot differences in adipose tissue for obesity complications.

TL;DR: This chapter will review the phenotypic characteristics of different adipose depots and mechanisms that link their depot-specific biology to metabolic complications in men and women.
