DESCRIPTION:Prof. Michaela TENCEROVA\, University of Southern Denmark\, Od
 ense (DK) and Institute of Physiology\, Czech Academy of Sciences\, Prague
  (CZ)\nSEMINAR of the LAUSANNE INTEGRATIVE METABOLISM and NUTRITION ALLIAN
 CE (LIMNA)\n\nAbstract:\nBone fragility and fracture risk are overlooked c
 omplications affecting the quality of life in patients with metabolic dise
 ases and they are often associated with higher accumulation of bone marrow
  adipose tissue (BMAT). BMAT originate from the bone marrow skeletal (also
  know as stromal or mesenchymal) stem cells present in the bone marrow str
 oma and give rise\, in addition to adipocytes\, to osteoblast participatin
 g in bone formation. Opposite to peripheral adipose tissue there is limite
 d information on a physiological role of BMAT in relation to bone and whol
 e body energy metabolism. In this talk I will review our current findings 
 on metabolic changes in BMAT phenotype and its effect on bone marrow micro
 environment and stem cell properties.\n
