Diosgenin regulates adipokine expression in perivascular adipose tissue and ameliorates endothelial dysfunction via regulation of AMPK. J. Steroid Biochem. Mol.

The association between obesity and endothelial dysfunction in COVID-19 patients is analyzed in an article published in the journal Obesity.

Perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) is the connective tissue around most blood vessels throughout the body. It provides mechanical support and maintains vascular homeostasis in a paracrine/endocrine ...

Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension: How Adipose Tissue Works Against Us —Obesity, estrogens, and adipocyte dysfunction all contribute to the development of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).

Perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT), a crucial regulator of vascular homeostasis, is actively involved in vascular dysfunction during aging. PVAT releases various adipocytokines, chemokines and growth ...

However, perivascular adipose tissue can adopt detrimental properties under the influence of obesity and other factors and contribute actively to the pathophysiology of cardiovascular disease.

Objective—The present study was conducted to investigate the contribution of perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) to vascular dysfunction in a mouse model of diet-induced obesity. Approach and ...
