This project investigates how blood vessel growth in fat tissue affects obesity and related diseases. It focuses on the transition from white to brown fat, which is linked to metabolism and energy expenditure, aiming to uncover new therapeutic targets for conditions like type 2 diabetes and cancer.
Understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying adipose blood vessel growth or regression opens new fundamentally insight into novel therapeutic options for the treatment of obesity and its related metabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes and cancer.
Unlike any other tissues in the body, the adipose tissue constantly experiences expansion and shrinkage throughout the adult life.
Adipocytes in the white adipose tissue have the ability to switch into metabolically highly active brown-like adip…
