Journal ArticleDOI
The development of adipose tissue
TL;DR: The sections in this article are: Embryonic and Postembryonic Histogenesis of Adipose Tissue, Occurrence and Appearance of the Primitive Organs of the White Adiposes, and Growth and Spreading of Adipses Tissue.
Journal ArticleDOI
The physiological role of brown adipose tissue1
TL;DR: This article discusses the physiological role of Brown Adipose Tissue as a Quantitatively Important site of Heat Production in Nonhibernating Species, and its suitability for the Study of Metabolic Mechanisms in Adiposed Tissue.
Journal ArticleDOI
The metabolism of isolated fat cells
TL;DR: In this paper, a morphology of fat cells and Stromal-Vascular fraction is discussed. But the authors focus on the preparation of fat cell and not the response to insulin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fatty acid patterns in human adipose tissue
TL;DR: The sections in this article are: Adipose Fatty Acid Analysis Without the Use of GLC, Adiposing Composition of the Newborn, and Results of the Analysis of the Results.
Journal ArticleDOI
Some physiological and clinical implications of lipid mobilization from adipose tissue1
TL;DR: The sections in this article are: Control of Lipid Mobilization in the Intact Organism, Events oflipidMobilization in Target Organs, and Some Consequences of Inhibition of Lipids Mobilization.

Journal ArticleDOI
A study of the source of liver fat using deuterium as an indicator.
TL;DR: A microdensity method for the determination of deuterium oxide, elaborated by one of us (H. M. B.), is described and the results of the application of this method to certain problems of fat mobilization are presented and discussed.

Relation of cortisone pretreatment to mobilization of lipids to liver by pituitary extracts.
Louis Levin,Rita K. Farber +1 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that to mobilize fat from the depots to the liver the animal requires at least two factors, adequate supplies of adrenocortical hormone (from either endogenous or exogenous sources) plus a supply of the “triggering” pituitary factor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anterior pituitary extracts and liver fat.
C. H. Best,James N. Campbell +1 more
TL;DR: Fatty livers produced in rats by fasting, by diets rich in fat, cholesterol feeding, phosphorus poisoning, and by diets deficient in choline and in other " lipotropic " factors have been recently studied in laboratories, but the rate of accumulation of fat in the liver when large doses of the anterior pituitary extract are given is greater than that caused by any of these other procedures.
Journal ArticleDOI
A method of assaying the potency of anterior pituitary extracts which increase liver fat
TL;DR: A mouse assay of the substance or substances which are present in anterior pituitary extracts and which cause upon injection an increase in liver fat is described and coincident effects of the extracts on liver glycogen and the resistance to insulin are shown.
