Regulatory mechanism of white adipocyte browning and research advances [PDF]

open access: yesBIO Web of Conferences
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 ...

The endocrine disruptor DEHP and the ECS: analysis of a possible crosstalk

open access: yesEndocrine Connections, 2020
Studies of the last decade associated the environmental contamination by di-(2-ethylhexyl)- phthalate (DEHP) with obesity and endocrine malfunction.

Effect of Hemi-Castration on the Productivity, Histological Characteristics, and Economic Efficacy of Korean Beef Cattle

open access: yesAnimals, 2021
We evaluated the growth performance, serum testosterone, carcass traits, histological characteristics, and economic efficacy of castrated and hemi-castrated Korean beef cattle. Thirty-two Hanwoo calves (Initial body weight: 148.4 ± 19.8 kg) were randomly

Adipocytes Directly Affect Coronary Artery Disease Pathogenesis via Induction of Adipokine and Cytokine Imbalances

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
This study aimed to investigate the adipokine and cytokine profiles of adipocytes from epicardial and subcutaneous adipose tissues in interconnection with the visceral adipose tissue area and the biochemical and clinical characteristics of patients with ...

Effect of Metformin and Simvastatin in Inhibiting Proadipogenic Transcription Factors

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Molecular Biology, 2021
Obesity is a multifactorial chronic disease characterized by the excessive accumulation of fat in adipose tissue driven by hypertrophy and hyperplasia of adipocytes through adipogenesis.

The role of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases in the regulation of adipocyte lipolysis

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2005
This study assessed the effects of selective inhibitors of 3′,5′-cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDEs) on adipocyte lipolysis. IC224, a selective inhibitor of type 1 phosphodiesterase (PDE1), suppressed lipolysis in murine 3T3-L1 adipocytes (69.6 ±

The Aging of Adipocytes Increases Expression of Pro-Inflammatory Cytokines Chronologically

open access: yesMetabolites, 2021
Adipose tissue is a significant producer of pro-inflammatory cytokines in obese and old individuals. However, there is no direct evidence of whether and how aged adipocytes enhance the production of pro-inflammatory markers.

From heart to BAT: Rethinking mouse models of human BAT

open access: yesCell Reports
Ran et al. identify a heart-associated origin of mouse supraclavicular brown adipose tissue (BAT). Their findings challenge the dominance of interscapular BAT in mouse research and suggest that anatomically corresponding depots may better inform ...

Mature Human White Adipocytes Cultured under Membranes Maintain Identity, Function, and Can Transdifferentiate into Brown-like Adipocytes

open access: yesCell Reports, 2019
Summary: White adipose tissue (WAT) is a central factor in the development of type 2 diabetes, but there is a paucity of translational models to study mature adipocytes.

The heterodimeric amino acid transporters (HAT) of the SLC7/SLC3 family: A structure−function relationships and relevance to human pathology

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Heterodimeric amino acid transporters consist of SLC7 and SLC3 family proteins arranged in a conserved structural organization. They regulate nutrient transport across cell membranes, supporting essential cellular functions. These transporters also contribute to xenobiotic/drug uptake and distribution.
