Adipose Tissue Dysfunction Associated with Air Pollution and Climate Change: Comprehending the Metabolic Effects
Author(s): Radoslav Preethi*
Adipose tissue plays a vital role in energy storage, thermoregulation and endocrine signaling. However, its function is increasingly threatened by environmental stressors such as air pollution and climate change. This review explores how these factors contribute to adipose tissue dysfunction and related metabolic disorders. Air pollutants including particulate matter, nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compounds induce inflammation, oxidative stress, endocrine disruption and epigenetic changes in adipocytes, contributing to obesity, insulin resistance and dyslipidemia...
