摘要
内脏脂肪组织与心血管疾病的发生、发展过程密切相关,而心外膜脂肪组织(EAT)是一种特殊性质的内脏脂肪组织,其位于心肌与心包之间,具有独特的解剖位置、代谢功能及内分泌、旁分泌特性,使其在多种心血管疾病(如动脉粥样硬化、心房颤动、高血压及心力衰竭等)病理生理过程中扮演了重要的角色,不仅在研究中受到青睐,也为将来心血管疾病的治疗提供了新的靶点。
Visceral adipose tissue is closely associated with the occurrence and development of cardio-vascular diseases.Epicardial adipose tissue（EAT） is a particular form of visceral adipose tissue,located between myocardium and pericardium, the unique anatomical location, metabolic function, endocrine and paracrine properties of which make it play an important role in the pathological process of cardiovascular dis-eases（ such as atherosclerosis,atrial fibrillation,hypertension and heart failure,etc.） .So it not only is popu-lar in the study,but also provides a new target for therapy of heart diseases in the future.
