UCP1 in Brite/Beige Adipose Tissue Mitochondria Is Functionally Thermogenic

Cell Reports, 2013
The phenomenon of white fat “browning,” in which certain white adipose tissue depots significantly increase gene expression for the uncoupling protein UCP1 and thus supposedly acquire thermogenic, fat-burning properties, has attracted considerable ...

Irisin‐Loaded Dissolving Microneedles Promote Rapid Wound Healing

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Schematic of effective wound healing facilitated by water‐degradable microneedles loaded with irisin that enhance irisin penetration, fibroblast migration, differentiation, and extracellular matrix synthesis at the wound site. Irisin, an exercise‐induced myokine with anti‐inflammatory and regenerative activity, is incorporated into dissolving poly ...

Quantitative assessment of masticatory muscles based on skull muscle attachment areas in Carnivora

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Masticatory muscles are composed of the temporalis, masseter, and pterygoid muscles in mammals. Each muscle has a different origin on the skull and insertion on the mandible; thus, all masticatory muscles contract in different directions. Collecting in vivo data and directly measuring the masticatory muscles anatomically in various Carnivora ...

Brown and beige adipose tissue‐derived metabokine and lipokine inter‐organ signalling in health and disease

Experimental Physiology
Adipose tissue has an established endocrine function through the secretion of adipokines. However, a role for bioactive metabolites and lipids, termed metabokines and lipokines, is emerging in adipose tissue‐mediated autocrine, paracrine and endocrine ...
