Human adipocyte

The main physiological functions of fat cells in the body are stored in the form of triglycerides and provide energy when the body needs it. The anabolism of adipocytes mainly involves two processes: Absorption and synthesis. Triglycerides can be decomposed by intestinal mucosal cells into glycerol and fatty acids, which enter the blood circulation through the portal vein. Long-chain fatty acids can be synthesized by intestinal mucosal cells again, and then combine with apolipoprotein to form chyle particles, which enter the blood circulation through lymphatic vessels. Adiponectin is the protein hormone secreted by adipocytes most, accounting for 0.01% of total plasma protein, It has anti IR, anti atherosclerosis and anti-inflammatory effects, and has important drug development prospects; Changes in the adipose factor profile expressed in adipose tissue lead to a decrease in adiponectin levels in obese individuals; Hypoadiponectinemia is also closely related to IR, lipid disorders, and inflammatory markers such as CRP, and is considered a biochemical marker of MS.
