Analysis of Tks4 Knockout Mice Suggests a Role for Tks4 in Adipose Tissue Homeostasis in the Context of Beigeing

open access: yesCells, 2019
Obesity and adipocyte malfunction are related to and arise as consequences of disturbances in signaling pathways. Tyrosine kinase substrate with four Src homology 3 domains (Tks4) is a scaffold protein that establishes a platform for signaling cascade ...

Investigating interactions between epicardial adipose tissue and cardiac myocytes: what can we learn from different approaches? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Heart disease is a major cause of morbidity and mortality throughout the world. Some cardiovascular conditions can be modulated by lifestyle factors such as increased exercise or a healthier diet, but many require surgical or pharmacological ...

Preadipocyte IL-13/IL-13Rα1 signaling regulates beige adipogenesis through modulation of PPARγ activity

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Investigation
Type 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) regulate the proliferation of preadipocytes that give rise to beige adipocytes. Whether and how ILC2 downstream Th2 cytokines control beige adipogenesis remain unclear.

M2 macrophages independently promote beige adipogenesis via blocking adipocyte Ets1

open access: yesNature Communications
Adipose tissue macrophages can promote beige adipose thermogenesis by altering local sympathetic activity. Here, we perform sympathectomy in mice and further eradicate subcutaneous adipose macrophages and discover that these macrophages have a direct ...

Transferrin Receptor 1 Regulates Thermogenic Capacity and Cell Fate in Brown/Beige Adipocytes

open access: yesAdvanced Science, 2020
Iron homeostasis is essential for maintaining cellular function in a wide range of cell types. However, whether iron affects the thermogenic properties of adipocytes is currently unknown.

BCAA catabolism in brown fat controls energy homeostasis through SLC25A44. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Branched-chain amino acid (BCAA; valine, leucine and isoleucine) supplementation is often beneficial to energy expenditure; however, increased circulating levels of BCAA are linked to obesity and diabetes.

Epigenetically active chromatin in neonatal iWAT reveals GABPα as a potential regulator of beige adipogenesis

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology
BackgroundThermogenic beige adipocytes, which dissipate energy as heat, are found in neonates and adults. Recent studies show that neonatal beige adipocytes are highly plastic and contribute to >50% of beige adipocytes in adults.

Heartbreak hotel: a convergence in cardiac regeneration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In February 2016, the Company of Biologists hosted an intimate gathering of leading international researchers at the forefront of experimental cardiovascular regeneration, with its emphasis on ‘Transdifferentiation and Tissue Plasticity in Cardiovascular

Autophagy in Myf5+ progenitors regulates energy and glucose homeostasis through control of brown fat and skeletal muscle development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Macroautophagy (MA) regulates cellular quality control and energy balance. For example, loss of MA in aP2-positive adipocytes converts white adipose tissue (WAT) into brown adipose tissue (BAT)-like, enhancing BAT function and thereby insulin sensitivity.

Activation of estrogen receptor alpha induces beiging of adipocytes

open access: yesMolecular Metabolism, 2018
Brown adipose tissue (BAT) and BAT-like adipose tissues, referred to as 'beige' adipose tissues uncouple respiration from ATP synthesis via uncoupling protein one (UCP-1). There is a sexual dimorphism with respect to beige and BAT tissues; pre-menopausal women have more BAT and are more sensitive to BAT activation than men or postmenopausal women.
