The Role of Thermogenic Fat Tissue in Energy Consumption
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
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
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
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]
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]
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]
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]
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

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]
(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 ...
