How the Body’s Internal Clock Regulates Fat Tissue Function and Metabolism

AI simplified

Abstract

The circadian clock is crucial for regulating adipose tissue functions and maintaining energy balance.

  • Circadian rhythms influence the timing of various physiological processes in the body.
  • Adipose tissues play a significant role in metabolic regulation, influenced by both peripheral and central nervous system communication.
  • The review discusses the roles of both master and adipocyte circadian clocks in managing adipose tissue physiology.
  • Understanding these mechanisms could provide insights into energy homeostasis and its disruptions.
