Exercise and Adipose Tissue Immunity: Outrunning Inflammation

Obesity-A Research Journal Nathan C. Winn Matthew A. Cottam David H. Wasserman Alyssa H. Hasty First published: 26 April 2021 https://doi.org/10.1002/oby.23147 Abstract Chronic inflammation is considered a precipitating factor and possibly an underlying cause of many noncommunicable diseases, including cardiovascular disease, metabolic diseases, and some cancers. Obesity, which manifests in more than 650 million people […]

Mechanisms of Obesity-Induced Gastrointestinal Neoplasia

TAKE-HOME MESSAGE Obesity is a growing problem worldwide and is associated with increased risk of multiple cancers. This review examines the mechanisms behind obesity-induced neoplasia. – Richard Bambury, MD ABSTRACT Obesity is among the fastest growing diseases worldwide; treatment is inadequate and associated disorders, including gastrointestinal cancers, have high morbidity and mortality. An increased understanding […]

Role of Adipokines in the Modulation of T Cells Function

Procaccini C,et al. Front Immunol. 2013 Oct 18;4:332. Abstract The field that links immunity and metabolism is rapidly expanding. Apparently non-immunological disorders such as obesity and type 2 diabetes have been linked to immune dysregulation, suggesting that metabolic alterations can be induced by or be consequence of an altered self-immune tolerance. In this context, adipose […]
