Mechanisms of Perivascular Adipose Tissue Dysfunction in Obesity

<table>Leptin stimulates nitric oxide (NO) release in perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT). Mice lacking leptin (ob/ob) do not exhibit NO production in perivascular adipocytes. NO release is restored in PVAT after 2-week subcutaneous leptin infusion. Data from [<a href="/journals/ije/2013/402053/#B17">17</a>].</table>
