The Accumulation of Visceral Fat in Postmenopausal Women: The Combined Impact of Prenatal Genetics, Epigenetics, and Fat Depot Heterogeneity—A Descriptive Review

2025-02-18

Abstract excerpt

Objective: This review aims to provide an overview of the factors contributing to central obesity, particularly in postmenopausal women, who are affected at a global rate of 26%. It emphasizes the heterogeneity of adipocytes, the impact of prenatal genetic factors, and the role of estrogenic neuroendocrine regulation. Additionally, the review explores the paradoxical functions of visceral fat and identifies the pr...
