Adipocyte‐specific ablation of plakoglobin in mice does not affect adiposity but results in sexual‐dimorphic effects on weight gain

Physiological Reports
The main transcriptional coactivator of the WNT pathway, β‐catenin, is a well‐established regulator of adipogenesis and fat expansion, but our knowledge of how other members of the catenin family participate in adipogenesis remains incomplete.

Microplastics and the Endocrine–Metabolic Interface: Novel Diagnostic Tools Targeting Thyroid–Adipose Axis

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microplastics (MPs) have been identified as major environmental contaminants that can affect organisms directly and act as carriers of particles and chemical additives, thereby aggravating endocrine networks that coordinate metabolic homeostasis.

Gsα signalling suppresses PPARγ2 generation and inhibits 3T3L1 adipogenesis

, 2009
Since TSH receptor (TSHR) expression increases during adipogenesis and signals via cAMP/phospho-cAMP-response element binding protein (CREB), reported to be necessary and sufficient for adipogenesis, we hypothesised that TSHR activation would induce ...

The 5T Paradox of Triclosan: From Toiletries to Toxic Trash, a Growing Threat to Humanity

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Triclosan (TCS) persists as a contaminant of concern in the Anthropocene, despite regulatory actions. Environmental dissemination continues through wastewater effluents, biosolid application, and improper disposal practices. This narrative review synthesizes current evidence regarding triclosan's environmental fate, transformation pathways ...

Regulation of mitophagy by Sab during adipogenesis

, 2015
Obesity is a global epidemic. Adipogenesis, the synthesis of fat, is elevated in obese individuals. During adipogenesis, mitochondrial density is reduced by a form of self-digestion called mitophagy.

Blubber Thickening Driven by UCP1 Inactivation: Insights from a Cetacean‐Like Transgenic Mouse Model

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
UCP1 inactivation of cetaceans in mice drives BAT whitening and iWAT hyperplasia, promoting fat accumulation for aquatic adaptation. Abstract Cetaceans possess thick blubber, a specialized adipose tissue essential for thermal insulation, a streamlined body form, energy storage, and buoyancy. However, the mechanisms that underpin this adaptation are not

Understanding the Type 2 Immunity: An Evolving View Beyond Allergic Diseases

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Type 2 (T2) immunity is classically associated with defense against helminths and environmental threats, from a physiological perspective, and with allergies and eosinophilic inflammatory diseases, in a pathological sense. However, growing evidence reveals that T2 pathways also support other essential homeostatic functions, including tissue ...

IL-27 alleviates high-fat diet-induced obesity and metabolic disorders by inhibiting adipogenesis via activating HDAC6

Communications Biology
Obesity arises from an imbalance between adipogenesis and adipocyte thermogenesis. Interleukin-27 (IL-27), a heterodimer cytokine, is known to promote thermogenesis in brown adipose tissue. However, its role in adipogenesis remains unclear.

Pericytes as the Orchestrators of Vasculature and Adipogenesis

Genes
Pericytes (PCs) are located surrounding the walls of small blood vessels, particularly capillaries and microvessels. In addition to their functions in maintaining vascular integrity, participating in angiogenesis, and regulating blood flow, PCs also serve as a reservoir for multi-potent stem/progenitor cells in white, brown, beige, and bone marrow ...

Mesenchymal Stem Cells From a Klinefelter Syndrome Patient: Functional Characterization and Therapeutic Implications

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cell therapy, particularly those utilizing mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs), is gaining traction as a therapeutic option for regenerative treatment in patients with limited therapeutic options. Although the safety of MSC‐based interventions is well established, uncertainties remain regarding how genetic abnormalities and ...
