Studies on the expression and secretion of the neurotrophin nerve growth factor in white adipose tissue

2005-01-01

Abstract excerpt

White adipose tissue (WAT) is now recognised to be a complex endocrine organ which plays a key role in energy balance through the secretion of hormones and other protein factors (adipokines). The sympathetic nervous system (SNS) plays a central role in lipolysis and leptin production in WAT.
