Adipocytes cause leukemia cell resistance to daunorubicin via oxidative stress response. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Adipocytes promote cancer progression and impair treatment, and have been shown to protect acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) cells from chemotherapies. Here we investigate whether this protection is mediated by changes in oxidative stress.

PPARs and adipocyte function [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular and Cellular Endocrinology, 2010
For long viewed as passive lipid storage depots, adipocytes are now recognised as key players in the pathogenesis of insulin resistance and metabolic disease. In parallel, the last two decades of research have seen the emergence of transcription factors of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) family as central regulators of lipid and ...

Sulforaphane induces adipocyte browning and promotes glucose and lipid utilization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Scope: Obesity is closely related to the imbalance of white adipose tissue storing excess calories, and brown adipose tissue dissipating energy to produce heat in mammals.

Fate decision of mesenchymal stem cells: adipocytes or osteoblasts?

open access: yesCell Death and Differentiation, 2016
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), a non-hematopoietic stem cell population first discovered in bone marrow, are multipotent cells capable of differentiating into mature cells of several mesenchymal tissues, such as fat and bone.

Role of adipocyte-derived lipoprotein lipase in adipocyte hypertrophy [PDF]

open access: yesNutrition & Metabolism, 2007
A major portion of available fatty acids for adipocyte uptake is derived from lipoprotein lipase (LPL)-mediated hydrolysis of circulating lipoprotein particles. In vivo studies aimed at identifying the precise role of adipocyte-derived LPL in fat storage function of adipose tissue have been unable to provide conclusive evidence due to compensatory ...

A subcutaneous adipose tissue-liver signalling axis controls hepatic gluconeogenesis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The search for effective treatments for obesity and its comorbidities is of prime importance. We previously identified IKK-ε and TBK1 as promising therapeutic targets for the treatment of obesity and associated insulin resistance. Here we show that acute

Extracellular calcium modulates brown adipocyte differentiation and identity

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Brown adipocytes are important in regulating non-shivering thermogenesis, whole body glucose and lipid homeostasis. Increasing evidence supports an important role of metabolites as well as macro- and micronutrients in brown adipocyte differentiation and ...

Transferrin Receptor Functionally Marks Thermogenic Adipocytes

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
BackgroundThermogenic adipocytes, including beige and brown adipocytes, are critical for thermogenesis and energy homeostasis. Identification of functional cell surface markers of thermogenic adipocytes is of significance for potential application in ...

Adipocytes Provide Fatty Acids to Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2021
BackgroundThere is increasing evidence that adipocytes play an active role in the cancer microenvironment. We have previously reported that adipocytes interact with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) cells, contributing to chemotherapy resistance and ...

Posttranslational modifications of GLUT4 affect its subcellular localization and translocation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The facilitative glucose transporter type 4 (GLUT4) is expressed in adipose and muscle and plays a vital role in whole body glucose homeostasis. In the absence of insulin, only ~1% of cellular GLUT4 is present at the plasma membrane, with the vast ...
