Obesity, characterised by excessive fat accumulation, is a complex chronic condition that results from dysfunctional adipose tissue expansion due to prolonged calorie surplus. This leads to rapid adipocyte enlargement that exceeds the support capacity of the surrounding neurovascular network, resulting in increased hypoxia, inflammation, and insulin resistance. Intermittent fasting (IF), a dietary regimen that cycles between periods of fasting and eating, has emerged as an effective strategy to combat obesity and improve metabolic homeostasis by promoting healthy adipose tissue remodeling. However, the precise molecular and cellular mechanisms behind the metabolic improvements and remodeling of white adipose tissue (WAT) driven by IF remain elusive. This review aims to summarise and discuss the relationship between IF and adipose tissue remodeling and explore the potential mechanisms through which IF induces alterations in WAT. This includes several key structural changes, including angiogenesis and sympathetic innervation of WAT. We will also discuss the involvement of key signalling pathways, such as PI3K, SIRT, mTOR, and AMPK, which potentially play a crucial role in IF-mediated metabolic adaptations.
