Why is it important?

These findings suggest that regulating perivascular adipose tissue function may be a potential mechanism by which irisin improves endothelial function in obesity.

Perspectives

Writing this article was a great pleasure as it has co-authors with whom I have had long standing collaborations. This article also lead to consideration of the importance of perivascular adipose tissue.
