There is currently an urgent need to develop engineered scaffolds to support new adipose tissue formation and facilitate long-term maintenance of function and defect repair to further generate prospective bioactive filler materials capable of fulfilling surgical needs. Herein, adipose regeneration methods were optimized and decellularized adipose tissue (DAT) scaffolds with good biocompatibility were fabricated. Adipose-like tissues were reconstructed using the DAT and 3T3-L1 preadipocytes, which have certain differentiation potential, and the regenerative effects of the engineered adipose tissuesandwere explored. The method improved the efficiency of adipose removal from tissues, and significantly shortened the time for degreasing. Thus, the DAT not only provided a suitable space for cell growth but also promoted the proliferation, migration, and differentiation of preadipocytes within it. Following implantation of the constructed adipose tissues, the DAT showed gradual degradation and integration with surrounding tissues, accompanied by the generation of new adipose tissue analogs. Overall, the combination of adipose-derived extracellular matrix and preadipocytes for adipose tissue reconstruction will be of benefit in the artificial construction of biomimetic implant structures for adipose tissue reconstruction, providing a practical guideline for the initial integration of adipose tissue engineering into clinical medicine.

Background: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) encompasses a range of histological findings from the generally benign simple steatosis to steatohepatitis (MASH) which can progress to fibrosis and cirrhosis. Several factors, including the microbiome, may contribute to disease progression.
Results: Here, we demonstrate links between the presence and abundance of specific bacteria in the adipose and liver tissues, inflammatory genes, immune cell responses, and disease severity.

Background: Perinatal growth and nutrition have been shown to be determinants in the programming of different tissues, such as adipose tissue, predisposing individuals to metabolic alterations later in life. Previous studies have documented an increased risk of metabolic disturbances and low-grade inflammation in prepubertal children with a history of extrauterine growth restriction (EUGR). The aim of this study was to evaluate possible alterations resulting from impaired growth during early childhood and their impact on young adult health.

Background: Muscle and adipose tissue are the most critical indicators of beef quality, and their development and function are regulated by noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs). However, the differential regulatory mechanisms of ncRNAs in muscle and adipose tissue remain unclear.
Results: In this study, 2,343 differentially expressed mRNAs (DEMs), 235 differentially expressed lncRNAs (DELs), 95 differentially expressed circRNAs (DECs) and 54 differentially expressed miRNAs (DEmiRs) were identified in longissimus dorsi muscle (LD), subcutaneous fat (SF) and perirenal fat (VF) in Qinchuan beef cattle.

Adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) are crucially involved in various biological processes because of their self-renewal, multi-differentiation, and immunomodulatory activities. Some ADSC's characteristics have been associated with the basic theory of Chinese medicine (CM), especially the Meridian theory. CM can improve the biological properties of ADSCs to facilitate their use in injury treatment, restore immune homeostasis, and inhibit inflammatory responses.

Middle-aged obesity, characterized by excessive fat accumulation and systemic energy imbalance, often precedes various health complications. Recent research has unveiled a surprising link between DNA damage response and energy metabolism. Here, we explore the role of Eepd1, a DNA repair enzyme, in regulating adipose tissue function and obesity onset.
