ABSTRACT
Introduction: adipocyte is a multifunctional cell that intervenes in the systemic
homeostasis through the production of adipokines. The present review intended to
revise the present situation of the knowledge on the adipose tissue and to make
proposals for the consolidation of the concept of adipose organ.
Development: the adipose tissue is made up of different types of adipocytes, not
only the white and the brown but also the beige, the pink and the hepatic stellate
cell. All of them are functionally integrated with non-fatty cells. This fact allows the
evolution into the concept of adipose organ, with metabolic, endocrine and
regulatory functions both at the systemic and local levels in some organs, as it
happens in the rose adipocyte in the lactating mammary gland and in the hepatic
stellate cells. These functions are performed through the production of a wide
diversity of adipokines, with complex autocrine and paracrine effects. The
transdifferentiation of several types of adipocytes allows understanding the
importance of integrating these functions into the adipose organ. The alteration of
homeostasis in these cells and the imbalanced production of adipokines that takes
place as a result of obesity, generate metabolic chaos leading to metabolic
syndrome.
Conclusions: the concept of the adipose organ allows understanding in a
comprehensive way the function of adipocytes in the systemic regulation. This
research on the different types of adipocytes - and on the functioning of the
adipose organ as a whole - will lead to a better understanding of these processes at
both the physiological and pathological level.
