Surgical injury induces local and distant adipose tissue browning

Adipocyte, 2016
The adipose organ, which comprises brown, white and beige adipocytes, possesses remarkable plasticity in response to feeding and cold exposure. The development of beige adipocytes in white adipose tissue (WAT), a process called browning, represents a ...

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 ...

Central nicotine induces browning through hypothalamic κ opioid receptor

Nature Communications, 2019
Nicotine reduces food intake and increases energy expenditure in brown adipose tissue. Here the authors show that nicotine also induces white adipose tissue browning via central kappa opioid receptor action.

Brown adipose tissue in humans

Annals of Medicine, 2015
In spite of the long history of evidence for brown adipose tissue (BAT) in adult humans (1), the evidence of its functionality was missing.

Effects of intermittent exposure to hypobaria and cold on the microarchitecture and morphofunctional profile of rat gastrocnemius muscle

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Intermittent hypobaric hypoxia (IHH) enhances oxygen transport, muscle metabolism, and cardiovascular health; however, the combined effects of hypobaria and cold are less well understood. Exposure to these stressful environmental factors, even intermittently, can affect skeletal muscle due to its plasticity, thereby altering its metabolic and ...

Per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances and hand osteoarthritis: data from the Osteoarthritis Initiative

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective To explore whether biological levels of specific per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and a mixture of PFAS – reflecting the overall effect and accounting for correlations among each PFAS – relate to incident hand osteoarthritis (HOA) and progression.

The DMHGABA Neurons Play a Crucial Role in the Regulation of Cold‐Induced White Adipose Browning through DMH to LPO Projection

Advanced Science
The browning of white adipose tissue (WAT) can convert energy‐storing WAT into energy‐dissipating beige adipose tissue to combat obesity and metabolic dysfunction. Cold exposure is a WAT browning‐inducing condition in mice.

Glucagon‐Like Peptide‐1 Receptor Agonists, Sodium‐Glucose Cotransporter‐2 Inhibitors, and Risk of Autoimmune Rheumatic Diseases

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective GLP‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1RAs) and SGLT2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) facilitate weight loss and exhibit immunomodulatory effects, but their impact on the risk of developing autoimmune rheumatic diseases (ARDs) is unclear. We compared ARD incidence following initiation of GLP‐1RAs, or SGLT2is, vs.

Adipocyte-Targeted Nanocomplex with Synergistic Photothermal and Pharmacological Effects for Combating Obesity and Related Metabolic Syndromes

Nanomaterials
Obesity is a global epidemic which induces a multitude of metabolic disorders. Browning of white adipose tissue (WAT) has emerged as a promising therapeutic strategy for promoting weight loss and improving associated metabolic syndromes in people with ...

Dual Action of Dipyridamole in Experimental Rheumatoid Arthritis: Suppression of Joint Inflammation and Upregulation of Muscle Anabolism via Adenosine and AMPK pathways

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Introduction Rheumatoid sarcopenia, characterized by the progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass and function, is a frequent comorbidity in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), linked to prolonged, severe systemic inflammation. Purinergic signaling (adenosine, AMP, and ATP) plays a crucial role in inflammation, myogenesis, and muscle hypertrophy.
