Figure 1 ATMs plasticity in adipose tissue. In lean adipose tissue, anti-inflammatory M2-like macrophages are predominant and maintain homeostasis. In obese adipose tissue, an increase in ...

Although obese individuals are at greater risk of diabetes, high blood pressure or high cholesterol, not all obese people ...

They found that the concentrations of particles in kidney and liver samples were comparable, with an average of 433 ...

Our brains are increasingly plastic. Minuscule shards and flakes of polymers are surprisingly abundant in brain tissue, a study of postmortem brains shows.

Time-restricted eating may not add additional benefit in visceral adipose tissue reduction over the Mediterranean diet for people with overweight or obesity.

As many as 40% of Americans are obese, putting them at an increased risk for high blood pressure, diabetes, stroke, heart disease and certain cancers, according to the CDC. New research from the ...

Synaptic plasticity is the biological process by which specific patterns of synaptic activity result in changes in synaptic strength and is thought to contribute to learning and memory.

Obesity is an increasingly prevalent human condition in developed societies. Despite major progress in the understanding of the molecular mechanisms leading to obesity, no safe and effective ...

They are made by heating these chemicals at a high temperature. When the plastic is soft it can be poured into a mould. Once the plastic cools, it hardens into a shape. Plastic is a material that ...

In this review we present the anterior chamber of the eye as a transplantation and imaging site for the study of pancreatic islet cell plasticity, and summarize the major research outcomes facilitated ...

For example, another team of researchers recently found that plastic can cross the blood-brain barrier, leading them to worry that an accumulation of plastic in the brain may induce neurodegenerative ...
