The Role of Thermogenic Fat Tissue in Energy Consumption

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Molecular Biology, 2022
Mammalian adipose tissues are broadly divided into white adipose tissue (WAT) and thermogenic fat tissue (brown adipose tissue and beige adipose tissue).

Latest Advancements on Combating Obesity by Targeting Human Brown/Beige Adipose Tissues

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
Obesity is defined as overaccumulation of white adipose tissue in the body, mainly under the skin (subcutaneous adiposity) or in the abdominal cavity (visceral adiposity).

“Beige” Cross Talk Between the Immune System and Metabolism

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2019
With thymic senescence the epithelial network shrinks to be replaced by adipose tissue. Transcription factor TBX-1 controls thymus organogenesis, however, the same TBX-1 has also been reported to orchestrate beige adipose tissue development.

Fate of Adipose Progenitor Cells in Obesity-Related Chronic Inflammation

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
Adipose progenitor cells, or preadipocytes, constitute a small population of immature cells within the adipose tissue. They are a heterogeneous group of cells, in which different subtypes have a varying degree of commitment toward diverse cell fates ...

Thermal stress induces glycolytic beige fat formation via a myogenic state. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Environmental cues profoundly affect cellular plasticity in multicellular organisms. For instance, exercise promotes a glycolytic-to-oxidative fibre-type switch in skeletal muscle, and cold acclimation induces beige adipocyte biogenesis in adipose tissue.

Loss of TLE3 promotes the mitochondrial program in beige adipocytes and improves glucose metabolism. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Prolonged cold exposure stimulates the recruitment of beige adipocytes within white adipose tissue. Beige adipocytes depend on mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation to drive thermogenesis.

MicroRNA-33 Inhibits Adaptive Thermogenesis and Adipose Tissue Beiging [PDF]

open access: yesArteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2021
Objective: Recent studies have identified key transcriptional regulators of brown adipose tissue (BAT) differentiation and function, but posttranscriptional control of this network by microRNAs remains incompletely understood.

Adipocyte Liver Kinase b1 Suppresses Beige Adipocyte Renaissance Through Class IIa Histone Deacetylase 4. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Uncoupling protein 1+ beige adipocytes are dynamically regulated by environment in rodents and humans; cold induces formation of beige adipocytes, whereas warm temperature and nutrient excess lead to their disappearance. Beige adipocytes can form through

Pioglitazone does not synergize with mirabegron to increase beige fat or further improve glucose metabolism

open access: yesJCI Insight, 2021
BACKGROUND Beige and brown adipose tissue (BAT) are associated with improved metabolic homeostasis. We recently reported that the β3-adrenergic receptor agonist mirabegron induced beige adipose tissue in obese insulin-resistant subjects, and this was ...

PON2 Deficiency Leads to Increased Susceptibility to Diet-Induced Obesity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
(1) Background: Paraoxonase 2 (PON2) is a ubiquitously expressed protein localized to endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria. Previous studies have shown that PON2 exhibits anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory functions, and PON2-deficient (PON2-def) mice ...
