FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Obesity raises blood levels of PAI‐1, a protein linked to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease in people with obesity. In female mice fed a high‐fat diet, partially lowering PAI‐1 led to smaller subcutaneous fat cells and lower liver cholesterol, without changing body weight or insulin sensitivity.

Elevated soluble CD163 in gestational diabetes mellitus : secretion from human placenta and adipose tissue [PDF]
, 2014 Recently soluble CD163 (sCD163), a cleaved form of the macrophage receptor CD163, was identified as a macrophage-specific risk-predictor for developing Type 2 Diabetes.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Signals from adipose tissue in morbid obesity and effect on depot specific differences [PDF]
, 2009 Signals from adipose tissue, such as interleukin-6 (IL-6) and asymmetric dimethyl arginine (ADMA), an endogenous nitric oxide inhibitor, explain the link between obesity and metabolic diseases.

Polymorphism of the AHSG gene is associated with increased adipocyte β2-adrenoceptor function
Journal of Lipid Research, 2005 The alpha2 Heremans-Schmid glycoprotein (AHSG) gene is implicated in the regulation of body fat and insulin sensitivity. The Met/Met genotype of the common single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), rs4917, in the AHSG gene has been shown to be associated ...

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Time‐restricted feeding (TRF) in mice increased liver fatty acid oxidation and decreased fatty acid biosynthesis. These alterations persisted when TRF was discontinued and the host was infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Pre‐exposure to TRF did not alter tissue (lung and spleen) mycobacterial burden but significantly reduced CD3+ T cells in lungs

Adipose Angiogenesis Models in Animals and Methodology
, 2013 Adipose tissue angiogenesis plays a crucial role in the organism as blood vessels are required to supply nutrients and oxygen to the adipose tissue and to remove metabolic waste products.

Transcriptional fingerprinting of "browning" white fat identifies NRG4 as a novel adipokine [PDF]
, 2014 Brown adipocytes help to maintain body temperature by the expression of a unique set of genes that facilitate cellular metabolic events including uncoupling protein 1-dependent thermogenesis.

Faster postnatal decline in hepatic erythropoiesis than granulopoiesis in human newborns
Frontiers in PediatricsBackgroundDuring human foetal development, the liver is the primary site of blood cell production, but this activity declines in the third trimester and postnatally as haematopoiesis shifts to bone marrow.

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.In a murine model of myocardial ischemia and reperfusion (MI/R), the CD36 azapeptide ligand MPE‐298 reduces cardiac injury and transiently lowers left ventricular long‐chain fatty acids (LCFAs) accumulation 3 h after reperfusion, accompanied by a decrease of oxidative stress and inflammation‐associated genes' expression in the heart and adipose tissue.
