Single Acquisition Label-free Histology-like Imaging with Dual Contrast Photoacoustic Remote Sensing Microscopy [PDF]
Significance: Histopathological analysis of tissues is an essential tool for grading, staging, diagnosing and resecting cancers and other malignancies. Current histopathological techniques require substantial sample processing prior to staining with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) dyes, to highlight nuclear and cellular morphology.

Obesity is an important public-health problem worldwide. This study aimed to determine effects of porphyromonas gingivalis lipopolysaccharide (Pg-LPS) on adipocytes injuries and explore associated mechanisms. Adipocytes were isolated from SD rats.

The in vitro effects of resistin on the innate immune signaling pathway in isolated human subcutaneous adipocytes [PDF]
Context: Obesity-associated inflammation is a contributory factor in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM); the mechanisms underlying the progression to T2DM are unclear.

Background Cancer cells cooperate with cells that compose their environment to promote tumor growth and invasion. Among them, adipocytes provide lipids used as a source of energy by cancer cells and adipokines that contribute to tumor expansion ...

Acute Myeloid Leukaemia Drives Metabolic Changes in the Bone Marrow Niche
Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) is a highly proliferative cancer characterised by infiltration of immature haematopoietic cells in the bone marrow (BM). AML predominantly affects older people and outcomes, particularly in this difficult to treat population

The Sulfonylurea Drug, Glimepiride, Stimulates Glucose Transport, Glucose Transporter Translocation, and Dephosphorylation In Insulin-Resistant Rat Adipocytes In Vitro [PDF]
Sulfonylurea drugs are widely used in the therapy of NIDDM. The improvement of glucose tolerance after long-term treatment of NIDDM patients with the drug can be explained by stimulation of glucose utilization in peripheral tissues that are characterized

AMPKβ isoform expression patterns in various adipocyte models and in relation to body mass index
AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activation is considered a useful strategy for the treatment of type 2 diabetes (T2D). It is unclear whether the expression and/or activity of AMPK in adipocytes is dysregulated in obesity.

Theoretical Model and Characteristics of Mitochondrial Thermogenesis [PDF]
Mitochondria of brown adipocyte (BA) are the main intracellular sites for thermogenesis, which have been targeted for therapy to reduce obesity. However, there are long-standing critique and debates about the ability of raising cellular temperature by endogenous thermogenesis.

Regulatory mechanism of white adipocyte browning and research advances [PDF]
Adipose tissue has energy storage and metabolic functions, and its content is highly correlated with an individual’s obesity status. The relative proportions of white adipocytes, brown adipocytes, and beige adipocytes are also important in regulating ...

UCP1 Dependent and Independent Thermogenesis in Brown and Beige Adipocytes
Mammals have two types of thermogenic adipocytes: brown adipocytes and beige adipocytes. Thermogenic adipocytes express high levels of uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) to dissipates energy in the form of heat by uncoupling the mitochondrial proton gradient ...
