Abstract
Perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) has emerged as a dynamic organ influencing vascular function and cardiovascular health. In this brief review, an overview of the recent research in the investigation of PVAT is presented, ranging from in vivo studies to single-cell methodologies, in particular those based on Raman spectroscopy. The strengths and limitations of each, emphasizing their contributions to the current understanding of PVAT biology were discussed. Ultimately, the integration of these diverse methodologies promises to uncover new therapeutic targets and diagnostic biomarkers, including those emerging from simple Raman spectroscopy-based measurements of alterations in lipid unsaturation degree, invariably associated with PVAT dysfunction.
期刊介绍：
BBA Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids publishes papers on original research dealing with novel aspects of molecular genetics related to the lipidome, the biosynthesis of lipids, the role of lipids in cells and whole organisms, the regulation of lipid metabolism and function, and lipidomics in all organisms. Manuscripts should significantly advance the understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying biological processes in which lipids are involved. Papers detailing novel methodology must report significant biochemical, molecular, or functional insight in the area of lipids.
