fat cell- cells composed of fat adipose cell somatic cell,vegetative cell- any of the cells of a plant or animal except the reproductive cells; a cell that does not participate in the production of gametes; "somatic cells are produced from preexisting cells"; ...
and successfully established a causal relationship between pathogenesis of ageing-related diseases and cell senescence. Take atherosclerosis as an example, we have known that plaques composed of fat and protein gradually accumulate on the inner arterial wall, which is prone to cause coronary atherosclerot...
The epidermis is equipped with specialized mechanosensory organs that enable the detection of tactile stimuli. Here, by examining the differentiation of the tactile bristles, mechanosensory organs decorating the Drosophila adult epidermis, we show that n
Other types of plastids are the amyloplasts(淀粉粒), specialized for starch (淀粉)storage, elaioplasts(油粒体) specialized for fat(脂肪) storage, and chromoplasts(染色体) specialized for synthesis and storage of pigments(色素). As in mitochondria(线粒体), which have a genome encoding 37 ...
Ari B Molofsky, in Current Opinion in Immunology, 2020 Stromal cells: a rose by any other name Tissues contain differentiated parenchymal cells that perform the primary functions of an organ (e.g. epithelial cells in skin, adipocytes in fat, neurons in brain). Although long overlooked, the ...
Cellular senescence is considered a vital source of the inflammatory response in atherosclerosis and CVDs [9]. Senescent cells present in atherosclerotic lesions from LdLR − / − mice fed a low-fat diet (LFD) have high transcription levels of p16Ink4a, and p19Arf. At the same ...
It is essential in preventing heat loss since fat has poor thermal conductivity (Wolf et al., 2003). Together with other tissues, the skin represents the interface of the host and the environment, being constantly exposed to many insults. For this reason, different types of immune cells ...

A lipid molecule composed of sphingosine and a fatty acid linked through an amide bond; in fact, many chemically diverse ceramides have been described, showing that ceramide is not a single molecular species but rather a family of related molecules. Sphingomyelin A type of sphingolipid found in...
