Abstract

Objective: to provide an overview about the possible physiological mechanisms involved in metabolic regulation by adipose tissue according to its cellular particularity. Methods: a literature review was made using the Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online database (Medline / PubMed) considering publications since 2007. Results and Discussion: as a result, it was found four main approaches related to fat deposits influence in metabolic status: 1- Adipocytes Physiological Characteristics; 2- Portal Theory; 3- Adipocyte Expansion; 4- Relationship between Adipocyte Expansion, Inflammation and Adverse Factors. Conclusion: thus, the evidence indicates that the body fat distribution associated with molecular characteristics and specific adipocytes function and location may be more determinant than the total body fat amount for the establishment of a metabolic healthy profile.
