Browning of white fat: agents and implications for beige adipose tissue to type 2 diabetes. [PDF]
J Physiol Biochem, 2019 Mammalian adipose tissue is traditionally categorized into white and brown relating to their function and morphology: while white serves as an energy storage, brown adipose tissue acts as the heat generator maintaining the core body temperature. The most

Beige Adipocyte as the Flame of White Adipose Tissue: Regulation of Browning and Impact of Obesity [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2021 Beige adipocyte, the third and relatively new type of adipocyte, can emerge in white adipose tissue (WAT) under thermogenic stimulations that is termed as browning of WAT.

Inflammation of brown/beige adipose tissues in obesity and metabolic disease [PDF]
Journal of Internal Medicine, 2018 AbstractMany of the comorbidities of obesity, including type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases, are related to the low‐grade chronic inflammation of white adipose tissue. Under white adipocyte stress, local infiltration of immune cells and enhanced production of pro‐inflammatory cytokines together reduce metabolic flexibility and lead to insulin ...

Recent advances in our understanding of brown and beige adipose tissue: the good fat that keeps you healthy. [PDF]
F1000Res, 2018 Brown adipose tissue (BAT) possesses a unique uncoupling protein (UCP1) which, when activated, enables the rapid generation of heat and the oxidation of lipids or glucose or both. It is present in small amounts (~15–350 mL) in adult humans.

Optical imaging for brown or beige adipose tissue
VIEWCurrently, one in three adults worldwide may be obese or overweight. Obesity is characterized by an excess of energy‐storing white fat. An ingenious and sought‐after strategy against obesity is to activate energy‐consuming beige fat, which is converted ...

Sympathetic Innervation of White Adipose Tissue: to Beige or Not to Beige?
Physiology, 2021 Obesity research progresses in understanding neuronal circuits and adipocyte biology to regulate metabolism. However, the interface of neuro-adipocyte interaction is less studied.
