Transwell co-culture systems are models for examining cellular crosstalk, but the impact of porous membrane material on myogenic outcomes remains uncharacterized. We investigated the influence of transwell membrane material on myoblast differentiation in co-culture with human primary adipocytes and in varying concentrations of insulin-transferrin-selenium ...

Adipose tissue (AT) immune cells are implicated in the pathology of type 2 diabetes (T2D), and their content likely differs between abdominal subcutaneous adipose tissue (abSAT), femoral SAT (fmSAT), and visceral adipose tissue (VAT). Therefore, the objective of the current study was to develop a ...

The excessive accumulation of adipose tissue in obesity appears to result in adipose tissue dysfunction perpetuating the onset of obesity-related diseases, including type 2 diabetes (T2DM). In humans, adipose tissue is stored in several depots including subcutaneous and visceral. These depots contribute to the pathology of obesity differently owing to dif ...
