De novo reconstruction of human adipose transcriptome reveals conserved lncRNAs as regulators of brown adipogenesis

Nature Communications, 2018
Long non-coding RNAs are known to regulate mouse white adipose tissue development and brown adipose tissue program expression. Here, the authors construct a roadmap for human long non-coding RNAs expressed in fetal brown adipose tissue, adult omental and

Expression profiles and gene set enrichment analysis of the transcriptomes from the cancer tissue, white adipose tissue and paracancer tissue with colorectal cancer [PDF]

PeerJ
Background Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common cancers worldwide and is related to diet and obesity. Currently, crosstalk between lipid metabolism and CRC has been reported; however, the specific mechanism is not yet understood.

Beige Adipose Tissue Identification and Marker Specificity—Overview

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2021
Adipose tissue (AT) is classified based on its location, physiological and functional characteristics. Although there is a clear demarcation of anatomical and molecular features specific to white (WAT) and brown adipose tissue (BAT), the factors that ...

PexRAP inhibits PRDM16-mediated thermogenic gene expression [PDF]

, 2017
How the nuclear receptor PPARγ regulates the development of two functionally distinct types of adipose tissue, brown and white fat, as well as the browning of white fat, remains unclear.

Development of brown and white adipose tissue

Journal of Lipid Research, 1975
In this review, it is assumed that the reader is familiar with the basic properties of white and brown adipose tissue. The role and metabolic characteristics of both tissues in adult mammals have been adequately and repeatedly reviewed (1-3) and will be mentioned here only insofar as they impinge upon developmental aspects. Macroscopically brown fat is

The regulation of adipocyte growth in white adipose tissue

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Adipocytes can increase in volume up to a thousand-fold, storing excess calories as triacylglycerol in large lipid droplets. The dramatic morphological changes required of adipocytes demands extensive cytoskeletal remodeling, including lipid droplet and plasma membrane expansion.

Epigenetic regulation of white adipose tissue plasticity and energy metabolism by nucleosome binding HMGN proteins

Nature Communications, 2022
White adipose tissue browning plays an important role in regulating whole-body energy homeostasis and metabolism. Here the authors show that the HMGN nucleosome binding proteins epigenetically promote white adipocyte differentiation and modulate the rate

AATCT-IDS: A Benchmark Abdominal Adipose Tissue CT Image Dataset for Image Denoising, Semantic Segmentation, and Radiomics Evaluation [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Methods: In this study, a benchmark \emph{Abdominal Adipose Tissue CT Image Dataset} (AATTCT-IDS) containing 300 subjects is prepared and published. AATTCT-IDS publics 13,732 raw CT slices, and the researchers individually annotate the subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissue regions of 3,213 of those slices that have the same slice distance to ...

Regulation of adipose tissue inflammation by interleukin 6

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2020
Significance Chronic low-grade inflammation is a key driver of metabolic syndrome. This inflammatory response is mediated by immune-cell infiltration and the expression of inflammatory cytokines.

Roles of FGFs as adipokines in adipose tissue development, remodeling, and metabolism

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2014
White and brown adipose tissues, which store and burn lipids, respectively, play critical roles in energy homeostasis. Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) are signaling proteins with diverse functions in development, metabolism, and neural function. Among
