Understanding the Type 2 Immunity: An Evolving View Beyond Allergic Diseases

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Type 2 (T2) immunity is classically associated with defense against helminths and environmental threats, from a physiological perspective, and with allergies and eosinophilic inflammatory diseases, in a pathological sense. However, growing evidence reveals that T2 pathways also support other essential homeostatic functions, including tissue ...

Re‐thinking peripheral dysfunctions in obesity: The emerging role of sulphaceutics and sulphanutraceutics

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Obesity is a chronic, relapsing, multisystem disease in which cardiometabolic risk arises from excess adiposity and progressive dysfunction of peripheral organs, ultimately disrupting endocrine and metabolic crosstalk among tissues. Within this network, sulphur‐based biology, centred on hydrogen sulphide and related reactive sulphur species, has ...

Adipocyte‐specific NIK depletion enhances energy metabolism and glucose tolerance in mice

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Obesity is associated with reduced energy expenditure and increased hepatic lipid accumulation. This study reveals that loss of NIK in adipocytes stimulates FGF21‐driven expression of thermogenic genes, including UCP1, and mitochondrial uncoupled respiration.

Tankyrase‐2 regulates adipocyte differentiation through AMPK/mTOR signaling

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Tankyrase 2 (TNKS2), a PARP family member, underpins adipocyte differentiation. TNKS2 controls LKB1 protein level, and consequently, the activity of the mTOR/AMPK system and adipocyte differentiation through a layered process. Pharmacological inhibition of TNKS2 leaves other PARPs and DNA repair active and therefore represents a novel target in ...

Multimodal epigenetic and enhancer network remodeling shape the transcriptional landscape of human beige adipocytes

Communications Biology
Epigenetic regulation is a key determinant of adipocyte fate, driving the differentiation toward white or thermogenic beige phenotypes in response to environmental cues.

Formation of thermogenic adipocytes: What we have learned from pigs

Fundamental Research, 2021
Thermogenic adipocytes, including brown and beige adipocytes, are capable of dissipating energy via heat production in response to external stimuli, such as cold exposure and exercise.

The ciliary neurotrophic factor induces Stat3 phosphorylation in distinctive cytotypes of organs involved in body metabolism: An immunohistochemical study

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
p‐STAT3‐positive cells in metabolically relevant peripheral organs and tissues from mice administered with recombinant CNTF (0.3 mg/kg). Abstract Administration of ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) reduces food intake and body weight in both humans and experimental animals, where it also ameliorates hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia, and dyslipidemia ...

Car4-positive adipocyte progenitor cells adapt to the aging environment and work as protection against ROS via glutathione metabolism

Scientific Reports
The induction of beige adipocytes is significantly reduced in aged mice due to the senescence of adipocyte progenitor cells (APCs). Recent studies have revealed the existence of beige adipocyte subtypes, suggesting that APCs comprise a heterogeneous ...

EBF2 promotes the recruitment of beige adipocytes in white adipose tissue

Molecular Metabolism, 2016
Objective: The induction of beige/brite adipose cells in white adipose tissue (WAT) is associated with protection against high fat diet-induced obesity and insulin resistance in animals.

Innovations in Obesity Treatment: Beyond Adipose Tissue Dysfunction

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
Obesity drives chronic inflammation, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and cancer development through adipocyte dysfunction. Addressing this multisystemic disorder requires integrated strategies beyond diet and exercise, such as thermogenesis activation via menthol or capsinoids and appetite control through GLP‐1/GIP agonists and neuromodulation to ...
