|
How are adipose tissue marcophages (ATMs) connected with CVD and DM?
|
In obese ppl, they lose the ability to store triglycerides well and allow them into circulation. Then, FFAs trigger ATMs to produce proinflamatory cytokines, such as TNF-alpha and PAI-1. These can lead to insulin resistance, which sustains FFA release and feed-forward mechanisms. PAI- causes ectopic fats deposits that inc the risk for thrombi.
|
|
What are the changes in adipose tissue, liver, and muscle with obesity and insulin resistance?
|
1. Lean subjects = few macrophages, high adiponectin, and low inflammatory cytokines. β-Oxidation of lipids in muscle is high, and little ectopic fat in the muscle and liver.
2. Obesity and insulin resistance = many macrophages, high adipokines, and low levels of adiponectin. This adipose tissue may be limited in its lipid storage capacity, and this feature, along with the pro-inflammatory state, promotes ectopic lipid accumulation |
|
What is the link between the FFA and the Toll Like Receptor 4 pathway?
|
FetA, FFAs and LPS can both stimulate Tlr4 signaling; LPS directly binds the Tlr4-CD14 complex, whereas FFAs bind FetA, which then binds Tlr4. TLR4 signaling leads to the activation of the transcription factors nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) and AP-1, which can then upregulate the transcription of inflammatory genes, resulting in the production of inflammatory cytokines that can lead to insulin resistance.
