Abstract

The current concept of the pathogenesis of obesity relates to the inflammation caused by excess of adipose tissue. Regulatory T cells accumulated in visceral adipose tissue (VAT-resident Tregs) are also involved in this pathogenesis. In the present paper the mechanisms responsible for alterations in the number and function of VAT-resident Tregs T in obesity are described. The role of Tregs in inflammation, insulin resistance, atherogenesis, and also the influence on VAT-resident Tregs of adipocytokines and insulin are reviewed.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 31 May 2015.
All research outputs
#21,445,966
of 23,940,793 outputs
Outputs from Advances in experimental medicine and biology
#4,116
of 5,077 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#228,795
of 268,925 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Advances in experimental medicine and biology
#18
of 22 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,940,793 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 5,077 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.5. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 268,925 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 22 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
