adipózního

Adipózní is a Czech adjective derived from the word adipose, which refers to fatty tissue. The term is primarily used in biomedical contexts to describe processes, cells, or functions that involve or are characteristic of adipose tissue. Adipose tissue itself is a connective tissue composed of adipocytes, the cells that store energy in the form of triglycerides. It serves several physiological roles, including energy storage, insulation, mechanical protection, and endocrine functions through the secretion of hormones such as leptin, adiponectin, and resistin.

In the scientific literature, researchers often refer to adipózní differentiation when describing the transformation of preadipocytes into mature adipocytes. The adipózní lineage is regulated by a network of transcription factors, notably PPARγ (peroxisome proliferator‑activated receptor gamma) and C/EBPα (CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein alpha). Mutations or dysregulation in these factors can lead to pathological conditions such as lipodystrophies or obesity.

The word is also used in clinical descriptions, for instance, adipózní hypertrophy to denote the enlargement of fat cells, or adipózní infiltrace to describe the infiltration of fat into other tissues. Because adipose tissue is both abundant and metabolically active, the adjective adipózní is frequently paired with other terms in the fields of endocrinology, metabolic research, and oncology.

The term follows standard Czech morphological rules: the root adip- combined with the adjective-forming suffix -ózní, and the genitive singular form adipózního. While its usage is specialized, understanding the term is essential for students of medicine, biology, and related disciplines.
