Adipose tissue, once considered inert connective tissue, is an essential storage site for key substrates used as sources of energy. In recent years, cellular and molecular biologists have advanced the concept that adipocytes are not solely a cellular storage location for excess fuel. Rather, adipose tissue is an active secretory organ that synthesizes and releases a number of bioactive proteins... Read more

Biography

Barbara Nicklas

"The book succeeds in providing an understanding of adipose tissue and how it is affected by aerobic exercise generally…A strength of this book is its organization, where it combines coverage of the functions and controls of aerobic exercise on adipose mass. With the current interdisciplinary focus on treating obesity, practitioners and students in exercise physiology, nutrition, and medicine will benefit from this book…3 stars."
