TGF-β/SMAD signaling regulation of mesenchymal stem cells in adipocyte commitment
Adipocytes arising from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) requires MSC adipocyte commitment and differentiation of preadipocytes to mature adipocytes. Several signaling and some cytokines affect the adipogenesis of MSCs.

When Ron Landes approached me last summer with the idea to launch a journal dedicated to adipose tissue research, it resonated immediately; I loved the idea. Thus, it is with great pleasure that we launch Adipocyte, the first international peer-reviewed multi-disciplinary journal to focus exclusively on research covering all aspects of adipose tissue ...

Adipocyte-induced CD36 expression drives ovarian cancer progression and metastasis
Ovarian cancer (OvCa) is characterized by widespread and rapid metastasis in the peritoneal cavity. Visceral adipocytes promote this process by providing fatty acids (FAs) for tumour growth.

We are pleased to present in this issue of Cell Metabolism a review series on brown adipocytes. Until recently, brown adipose tissue (BAT) was principally studied by a handful of investigators focused on rodents and newborn mammals, and, at times, their work was deemed more an exercise in scientific curiosity than an issue relevant to human health.

Adipocyte complement-related protein (30 kDa) (Acrp30), a secreted protein of unknown function, is exclusively expressed in differentiated adipocytes; its mRNA is decreased in obese humans and mice.

Adipocyte-Derived Lipids Mediate Melanoma Progression via FATP Proteins.
Advanced, metastatic melanomas frequently grow in subcutaneous tissues and portend a poor prognosis. Though subcutaneous tissues are largely composed of adipocytes, the mechanisms by which adipocytes influence melanoma are poorly understood.

Adipocyte Piezo1 mediates obesogenic adipogenesis through the FGF1/FGFR1 signaling pathway in mice
White adipose tissue (WAT) expansion in obesity occurs through enlargement of preexisting adipocytes (hypertrophy) and through formation of new adipocytes (adipogenesis).

Adipocyte metabolism and obesity [PDF]
Adipose tissue metabolism exerts a profound impact on whole-body metabolism. We review how fuel partitioning between adipocytes and other tissues affects insulin signaling pathways. We discuss the role of adipose tissue inflammation in adipocyte metabolism and whole-body insulin sensitivity.

Extracting quantitative biological information from brightfield cell images using deep learning [PDF]
Quantitative analysis of cell structures is essential for biomedical and pharmaceutical research. The standard imaging approach relies on fluorescence microscopy, where cell structures of interest are labeled by chemical staining techniques. However, these techniques are often invasive and sometimes even toxic to the cells, in addition to being time ...

mPPAR gamma 2: tissue-specific regulator of an adipocyte enhancer.
Previously, we have isolated and characterized an enhancer from the 5'-flanking region of the adipocyte P2 (aP2) gene that directs high-level adipocyte-specific gene expression in both cultured cells and transgenic mice.
