“…6 As SAT adipocytes are generally more hypertrophic than omental adipocytes, an involvement of adipocyte hypertrophy in the observed downregulation of a7nAChR, with a consequent disruption of the anti-inflammatory pathway, might be hypothesized. We also found an association between a7nAChR expression levels and adiponectin geneexpression levels in isolated adipocytes.…”

“…1 --5 This inflammatory state is characterized by an increased number of macrophages infiltrating the adipose tissue, together with an overproduction of inflammatory cytokines. 3,6 At present, factors triggering the inflammatory responses are not fully understood, especially in humans. 3,6 It is known that the neural reflexes, via the vagus nerve, can attenuate systemic inflammatory responses.…”
