Perirenal Fat - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
Perirenal fat is located around the kidneys and the adrenal glands, and is separated from the pararenal fat in the retroperitoneal space by a condensed, membranous layer of renal fascia. From: Visceral and Ectopic Fat, 2023
Perirenal fat thickness is associated with metabolic risk ...
Perirenal fat (PRF) may lead to have direct lipotoxic effects on renal function and intrarenal hydrostatic pressure. This study was undertaken to explore the association of PRF with cardiovascular risk factors and different stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD).
Perirenal Fat and Kidney Function Deterioration in Patients ...
Perirenal fat is a fat pad surrounding the kidneys in the retroperitoneal space, located between the renal fibrous membrane and the renal fascia. 7) Perirenal fat shares the same developmental origin as typical visceral fat, but differs regarding histology, physiology, and functions.
Perirenal Fat: A Unique Fat Pad and Potential Target for ...
Based on these anatomical features, perirenal fat regulates the cardiovascular system presumably via neural reflex, adipokine secretion, and fat-kidney interaction. These new insights suggest that perirenal fat may constitute a promising target for CVD management.
Perirenal Adipose Tissue from Healthy Donor: Characteristics ...
Perirenal adipose tissue, one of the fat masses surrounding the kidneys, can be obtained from healthy donors during a kidney transplant. Perirenal adipose tissue has only ever been known as a connective tissue to protect the kidneys and renal …
Perirenal Adipose Tissue—Current Knowledge and Future ...
2021年3月21日 · PRAT is a complex microenvironment consisting of a mixture of white adipocytes and dormant and active brown adipocytes, associated with predipocytes, sympathetic nerve endings, vascular structures, and different types of inflammatory cells.
Perirenal Adipose Tissue Inflammation: Novel Insights Linking ...
2021年8月2日 · Interestingly, perirenal adipose tissue (PRAT), surrounding the kidney, influences renal function and metabolism. In this regard, PRAT emerged as an independent risk factor for chronic kidney disease (CKD) and is even correlated with CVD.
