Dr. Ben Bikman - 'Shrinking Fat Cells: Energy vs. Insulin'
B
4:36Ben BikmanGUEST
And if fat mass is growing, we can gain fat mass through two different processes.
B
4:42Ben BikmanGUEST
On one hand, a person can be gaining fat because all of the fat cells are growing or they are undergoing hypertrophy.
B
4:50Ben BikmanGUEST
In contrast, someone could have gained the exact same mass of fat, and yet it didn't happen through a change in the size of the fat cells substantially, but rather it was an addition or a synthesis or a creation of new fat cells, which is a process called hyperplasia.
B
5:08Ben BikmanGUEST
So on one hand, we have hypertrophic fat cells, which are fewer in number, but substantially larger in volume or size.
B
5:17Ben BikmanGUEST
And then on the other hand, we have the hyperplastic fat cells, which are much more abundant, but generally smaller in size and volume.

Or if there was a deal to be made, he'd get a cut.
Z
29:59Zev ShalevHOST
It goes back all the way to the time when Rudy Giuliani attempted to, and I think successfully did, prosecute fat cell...
Z
30:10Zev ShalevHOST
Fat Cell is all I'm going to say.
Z
30:12Zev ShalevHOST
I don't remember his last name.
Z
30:13Zev ShalevHOST
Salvatore somebody.
Z
30:14Zev ShalevHOST
Fat Cell was a famous mobster who, back in the day, was running a concrete scam in the 1980s in...
Z
30:24Zev ShalevHOST
in in new york where they would use only the concrete made by certain mafia family and that donald trump would get a cut of any of the stuff that was being used on his building that way he could get a cut of everything why not and the mafia would get a card and he'd get a card and everyone would be happy and and uh in order to prosecute fat sal uh i think donald trump uh got struck a deal with rudy giuliani that he would turn on fat sal who ended up spending the rest of his life in jail in exchange for not getting prosecuted himself.

So that tells you the kind of guy, again, Donald Trump really is, and his relationship with Rudy Giuliani.
How Mitochondria Control Your Metabolism | Dr. Jared Rutter

27:47Jared RutterGUEST
Adipocytes, for example.
J
27:48Jared RutterGUEST
These are the fat cells, the cells that make up our fat tissue.
J
27:53Jared RutterGUEST
They care a great deal about that, and when they see insulin, what they do is they turn on a protein, they start making a protein that will cause glucose to be taken up into that adipocyte, that fat cell.
J
28:09Jared RutterGUEST
And that glucose will then be converted through a series of chemical reactions into a fat molecule, and then that fat molecule will be stored away in a way that is very safe and enabled to be stored for potentially a very long time.

Again, these are the, the, the products of the metabolic map are the amino acids that make proteins and the nucleotides that are required to make DNA and RNA, our genome.

61:38Andrew HubermanHOST
There's a greediness to all these cells.
A
61:40Andrew HubermanHOST
Uh, if the fat cells are greedy, you could really see a problem.

Like, if we're not ingesting enough glucose...
