Hemodynamic correlates of fluctuations in neuronal excitability: A simultaneous Paired Associative Stimulation (PAS) and functional near infra-red spectroscopy (fNIRS) study

Author(s): Cai Z; Pellegrino G; Spilkin A; Delaire E; Uji M; Abdallah C; Lina JM; Fecteau S; Grova C;

Background: The relationship between task-related hemodynamic activity and brain excitability is poorly understood in humans as it is technically challenging to combine simultaneously non-invasive brain stimulation and neuroimaging modalities. Cortical exci...

Is Adipose Tissue Inflammation the Culprit of Obesity-Associated Comorbidities?

Author(s): Turner L; Wanasinghe AI; Brunori P; Santosa S;

In individuals with obesity, the onset of chronic comorbidities coincides with the excessive accumulation of adipose tissue in various tissue beds. As obesity progresses, adipose tissue becomes increasingly dysfunctional causing chronic low-grade inflammati...

Spectral and network investigation reveals distinct power and connectivity patterns between phasic and tonic REM sleep

Author(s): Avigdor T; Peter-Derex L; Ho A; Schiller K; Wang Y; Abdallah C; Delaire E; Jaber K; Travnicek V; Grova C; Frauscher B;...

Although rapid eye movement (REM) sleep is often thought of as a singular state, it consists of two substates, phasic and tonic REM, defined by the presence (respectively absence) of bursts of rapi...

Relationship Between Lumbar Multifidus Morphometry and Pain/Disability in Individuals With Chronic Nonspecific Low Back Pain After Considering Demographics, Fear-Avoidance Beliefs, Insomnia, and Spinal Degenerative Changes

Author(s): Pinto SM; Cheung JPY; Samartzis D; Karppinen J; Zheng YP; Pang MYC; Fortin M; Wong AYL;

Background: Although individuals with chronic low back pain (CLBP) show increased fatty infiltration in the lumbar multifidus muscle (LMM), it remains unclear whether LMM changes are related to clinical outcomes (such as pain and disability) after consideri...

Description:

In individuals with obesity, the onset of chronic comorbidities coincides with the excessive accumulation of adipose tissue in various tissue beds. As obesity progresses, adipose tissue becomes increasingly dysfunctional causing chronic low-grade inflammation. Indeed, adipose tissue inflammation, which partially stems from macrophage infiltration and expression of macrophage-derived cytokines, has local and systemic consequences on health and increases the likelihood of developing obesity-associated comorbidities. In addition, cellular changes driven by macrophages may also further aggravate both adipose tissue dysfunction and inflammation, thus contributing to the onset and progression of several comorbidities including type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, osteoarthritis, some cancers, and dementia. The purpose of this review is to discuss how adipose tissue inflammation relates and contributes to the pathogenesis of obesity-associated comorbidities.
