To read the full abstract: Cell. 2018; 175(3): 695–708This paper demonstrates for the first time the existence of extracellular vesicle (EV)-mediated signaling between cell types within the adipose tissue. The results of various experiments show a network of EV-mediated exchange of cellular material in adipose tissue. This newly discovered EV trafficking in adipose tissue...

To read the full abstract: Cell Metab 2019; 29(4): 844–55This randomized, placebo-controlled, double blind trial showed that IL-6 is necessary for exercise-mediated loss of visceral adipose tissue mass. 53 participants (men and women) received either tocilizumab, an IL-6 signaling blocker (intervention group) or placebo (control group), every four weeks, in a ...
