An epigenome atlas of mouse adipocytes
Objective: Epigenetic modifications including histone post translational modifications can influence gene expression in adipocytes, potentially contributing to metabolic dysfunctions, obesity, and insulin resistance.

Single cell analysis reveals immune cell-adipocyte crosstalk regulating the transcription of thermogenic adipocytes. [PDF]
Immune cells are vital constituents of the adipose microenvironment that influence both local and systemic lipid metabolism. Mice lacking IL10 have enhanced thermogenesis, but the roles of specific cell types in the metabolic response to IL10 remain to ...

Extracellular vesicles from adipose tissue - a potential role in obesity and type 2 diabetes? [PDF]
Adipose tissue plays a key role in the development of insulin resistance and its pathological sequelae such as type 2 diabetes and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Dysfunction in the adipose tissue response to storing excess fatty acids as triglyceride

Primary preadipocytes from inguinal white or interscapular brown fat were treated with paracrine fibroblast growth factors (FGF) 2, 4, 8, or 9. Treatment induced acute Ucp1 expression in preadipocytes, independent of other browning markers. Upon subsequent differentiation, Ucp1 and browning markers were expressed at levels comparable to untreated cells.

Maintaining mitochondria in beige adipose tissue
Individual cell types vary enormously in the amount of different organelles they contain. One such organelle is the mitochondrion. Understanding how mitochondrial levels are controlled is essential since so many disease states seem to involve ...

Caloric restriction that extends lifespan induces the expression of PGC‐1α and MIPEP in white adipose tissue. In this study, co‐overexpression of Pgc‐1α and Mipep upregulated the gene expression of PHOSPHO1. These findings provide new insights into mitochondria‐related mechanisms underlying the effects of caloric restriction in adipocytes.

Noggin depletion in adipocytes promotes obesity in mice. [PDF]
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 ...

Chronic diseases are associated with imbalances in adipose tissue, which plays a crucial role in regulating metabolic health. Food‐based bioactive substances (such as polyphenols, terpenoids, peptides, and fibers) impact fat metabolism by influencing the processes of lipolysis, adipogenesis, thermogenesis, and appetite control.

Alternative isoform expression of key thermogenic genes in human beige adipocytes
BackgroundThe beneficial effect of thermogenic adipocytes in maintaining body weight and protecting against metabolic disorders has raised interest in understanding the regulatory mechanisms defining white and beige adipocyte identity.
