Zusammenfassung:While increasing numbers of studies have established that adipose tissue plays a vital role in balancing energy intake and energy expenditure as both an energy and an endocrine organ, the detailed functions of adipose tissue remain unclear. Adipose tissues are complex, with multiple resident cell populations that communicate to diverse cells and organs via local and systemic metabolic, thermal, and inflammatory signaling. In normal physiology, adipose tissue-derived extracellular vesicles mediate the regulation of energy storage/consumption in adipose tissue, liver, and muscle. In a pathological sense, fat-derived extracellular vesicles can promote the progression of obesity, endocrine diseases, cancer, and reproductive system disorders. In this review, we demonstrate that adipocyte-derived extracellular vesicles function not only in physiological balance but also in the pathological process. We aim to illustrate the impact of adipocyte-derived extracellular vesicles and their value in understanding both homeostasis and disorders.
