Role of arginase 2 in systemic metabolic activity and adipose tissue fatty acid metabolism in diet-induced obese mice [PDF]

, 2019
Visceral adipose tissue (VAT) inflammation and metabolic dysregulation are key components of obesity-induced metabolic disease. Upregulated arginase, a ureahydrolase enzyme with two isoforms (A1-cytosolic and A2-mitochondrial), is implicated in ...

Chronic Peroxisome Proliferator-activated Receptor γ (PPARγ) Activation of Epididymally Derived White Adipocyte Cultures Reveals a Population of Thermogenically Competent, UCP1-containing Adipocytes Molecularly Distinct from Classic Brown Adipocytes*

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2009
The recent insight that brown adipocytes and muscle cells share a common origin and in this respect are distinct from white adipocytes has spurred questions concerning the origin and molecular characteristics of the UCP1-expressing cells observed in ...

Biopolymer Membranes for Osmotic Power Generation in Bionic Applications

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review provides an overview of biopolymer‐based osmotic power generation for bionic applications. It uniquely bridges biopolymer membranes, reverse electrodialysis(RED), and bionic applications, addressing a critical research gap by integrating biopolymer membranes with RED technologies for biomedical use.

Investigating interactions between epicardial adipose tissue and cardiac myocytes: what can we learn from different approaches? [PDF]

, 2017
Heart disease is a major cause of morbidity and mortality throughout the world. Some cardiovascular conditions can be modulated by lifestyle factors such as increased exercise or a healthier diet, but many require surgical or pharmacological ...

Unraveling the Role of MDK‐SDC4 Interaction in Pancreatic Cancer‐Associated New‐Onset Diabetes by Single‐Cell Transcriptomic Analysis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Midkine (MDK) is a mediator of the interaction between pancreatic cancer and beta cells. MDK, which originated from pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cells, exerted deleterious effects on paraneoplastic beta cells by binding to the SDC4 receptor on the beta cell surface and subsequently downregulating the Ras signaling pathway, thereby impairing insulin

CXCL3 positively regulates adipogenic differentiation

Journal of Lipid Research, 2016
Chemokines are a family of cytokines inducing cell migration and inflammation. Recent reports have implicated the roles of chemokines in cell differentiation. However, little is known about the functional roles of chemokines in adipocytes.

COMPLEMENT-MEDIATED ADIPOCYTE LYSIS BY NEPHRITIC FACTOR SERA [PDF]

, 1993
Recent data indicate a previously unsuspected link between the complement system and adipocyte biology. Murine adipocytes produce key components of the alternative pathway of complement and are able to activate this pathway.

Enhanced Media Optimize Bovine Myogenesis in 2D and 3D Models for Cultivated Meat Applications

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uses multiomics approaches to characterize bovine myogenesis in vitro, identifying media components that enhance myogenic progenitor cell differentiation in 2D and 3D models. Notably, the enhanced conditions promoted formation of unique cell populations and contractile muscle cells expressing mature myogenic markers.
