White adipose tissue distribution and amount are associated with increased white matter connectivity

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Gabriel Girard, Elda Fischi Gomez, Philipp Johannes Koch, Liana Okudzhava

Obesity represents a significant public health concern and is linked to various comorbidities and cognitive impairments. Previous research indicates that elevated body mass index (BMI) is associated with structural changes in white matter (WM). However, a ...

The interplay between white adipose tissue, adipokines, and structural gray matter changes

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Gabriel Girard, Elda Fischi Gomez, Liana Okudzhava

The growing global obesity issue emphasizes the importance of understanding its health implications. Previous research has identified consistent alterations in gray matter (GM) volume in connection with obesity. Given the various implications of distinct f ...

The role and transcriptional regulation of FAM46A in adipocyte differentiation

Ann-Kristin Hov

Obesity is currently a leading global health concern. Treatments include undergoing a weight-loss regimen. However, successful weight-loss is variable, where the heritability of obesity is considered part of the cause. This patient variability to weight-lo ...

The antimicrobial peptide defensin cooperates with tumour necrosis factor to drive tumour cell death in Drosophila

Bruno Lemaitre, Anna Dostalova

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are small cationic molecules best known as mediators of the innate defence against microbial infection. While in vitro and ex vivo evidence suggest AMPs' capacity to kill cancer cells, in vivo demonstration of an anti-tumour r ...

The role of the transcriptional regulator BCL6 in adipose tissue development and remodeling

Teresa Didonna

The adipose tissue is increasingly recognized for the important role it plays in various diseases and pathological conditions, such as obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, osteoporosis, cancer, and aging. Despite its long-held reputation for being a ...

Perivascular macrophages in health and disease

Michele De Palma

Macrophages are a heterogeneous group of cells that are capable of carrying out distinct functions in different tissues, as well as in different locations within a given tissue. Some of these tissue macrophages lie on, or close to, the outer (abluminal) su ...

Microcomputed Tomography Technique for In Vivo Three-Dimensional Fat Tissue Volume Evaluation After Polymer Injection

Harm-Anton Klok, Ioana Konz

Tissue engineering technologies are new and promising techniques in fat tissue reconstruction. However, to assess their efficacy before any clinical application, in vivo experiments are mandatory. This study assesses whether microcomputed tomography (CT) s ...

Optical-resolution photoacoustic imaging through thick tissue with a thin capillary as a dual optical-in acoustic-out waveguide

Demetri Psaltis, Christophe Moser, Nicolino Stasio, Emmanuel André Henri Bossy

We demonstrate the ability to guide high-frequency photoacoustic waves through thick tissue with a water-filled silica-capillary (150 mu m inner diameter and 30 mm long). An optical-resolution photoacoustic image of a 30 mu m diameter absorbing nylon threa ...

The Nano-Scale Mechanical Properties of the Extracellular Matrix Regulate Dermal Fibroblast Function

Jean-Jacques Meister, Boris Hinz, Lara Buscemi Estefanell, Josiane Angèle Charlotte Smith-Clerc

Changes in the mechanical properties of dermis occur during skin aging or tissue remodeling and affect the activity of resident fibroblasts. With the aim to establish elastic culture substrates that reproduce the variable softness of dermis, we determined ...
