Message definition (Adipose tissue)
Previously treated as being hormonally inert, in recent years adipose tissue has been recognized as a major [[endocrine]] organ, as it produces [[hormone]]s such as [[leptin]], [[estrogen]], [[resistin]], and [[cytokine]]s (especially [[TNF-alpha|TNFα]]). In obesity, adipose tissue is implicated in the chronic release of pro-inflammatory markers known as [[adipokines]], which are responsible for the development of [[metabolic syndrome]]{{mdash}}a constellation of diseases including [[type 2 diabetes]], [[cardiovascular disease]] and [[atherosclerosis]].
