Glucocorticoid Receptor and Adipocyte Biology. [PDF]
, 2018 Glucocorticoids are steroid hormones that play a key role in metabolic adaptations during stress, such as fasting and starvation, in order to maintain plasma glucose levels.

White adipose tissue coloring by intermittent fasting [PDF]
Cell Research, 2017 Intermittent fasting (IF) has been shown to promote metabolic health in several organisms. Two recent papers show that IF induces white adipose tissue beiging and increases thermogenesis, which improves metabolic health in mice.

Metabolic effects of FGF-21: thermoregulation and beyond [PDF]
, 2015 Fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-21, a member of the FGF family, is a novel hormone involved in the control of metabolism by modulating glucose homeostasis, insulin sensitivity, ketogenesis, and promoting adipose tissue “browning.” Recent studies ...

Physiological role of adipose tissue: white adipose tissue as an endocrine and secretory organ [PDF]
Proceedings of the Nutrition Society, 2001 The traditional role attributed to white adipose tissue is energy storage, fatty acids being released when fuel is required. The metabolic role of white fat is, however, complex. For example, the tissue is needed for normal glucose homeostasis and a role in inflammatory processes has been proposed. A radical change in perspective followed the discovery

Noggin depletion in adipocytes promotes obesity in mice. [PDF]
, 2019 ObjectiveObesity has increased to pandemic levels and enhanced understanding of adipose regulation is required for new treatment strategies. Although bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) influence adipogenesis, the effect of BMP antagonists such as Noggin ...

Cold-induced changes in gene expression in brown adipose tissue, white adipose tissue and liver [PDF]
, 2013 Cold exposure imposes a metabolic challenge to mammals that is met by a coordinated response in different tissues to prevent hypothermia. This study reports a transcriptomic analysis in brown adipose tissue (BAT), white adipose (WAT) and liver of mice in

Cell Reports, 2019 Summary: Obesity in humans is associated with poorer health outcomes after infections compared with non-obese individuals. Here, we examined the effects of white adipose tissue and obesity on T cell responses to viral infection in mice.

Perivascular adipose tissue inflammation in vascular disease [PDF]
, 2017 Perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease. In vascular pathologies, perivascular adipose tissue increases in volume and becomes dysfunctional, with altered cellular composition and molecular ...

Adipose-Derived Stem Cells: Isolation, Characterization, and Differentiation Potential
Cell Transplantation, 2013 In mammals, the two main types of adipose tissues, white and brown adipose tissues, exert different physiological functions. White adipose tissue (WAT) is for storing energy, while brown adipose tissue (BAT) is for energy consumption.
