Inducible UCP1 silencing: A lentiviral RNA-interference approach to quantify the contribution of beige fat to energy homeostasis. [PDF]
Energy consuming, heat-producing beige adipocytes, located in classic white adipose tissue (WAT), hold promise for the treatment of obesity. Few reports have quantitatively assessed the contribution of browned 'WAT' to energy expenditure. There is a need

Diphyllin Improves High-Fat Diet-Induced Obesity in Mice Through Brown and Beige Adipocytes
Brown adipose tissue (BAT) and beige adipose tissue dissipate metabolic energy and mediate nonshivering thermogenesis, thereby boosting energy expenditure. Increasing the browning of BAT and beige adipose tissue is expected to be a promising strategy for

Brown and Beige Fat: Therapeutic Potential in Obesity
BACKGROUND: The epidemic of obesity and type 2 diabetes presents a serious challenge to scientific and biomedical communities worldwide. There has been an upsurge of interest in the adipocyte coincident with the onset of the obesity epidemic and the ...

LIGHT/TNFSF14 signaling attenuates beige fat biogenesis [PDF]
ABSTRACT The physiologic signals that regulate beige adipogenesis remain incompletely understood, especially those that limit browning and prevent overexpenditure of energy. In this study, the TNF family member cytokine lymphotoxinâlike inducible protein that competes with glycoprotein D for herpesvirus entry on T

Going immune on beige fat [PDF]
Two independent teams at UCSF and Harvard have found an immune-regulated pathway for beige fat formation and a hormone, METRNL, that activates it. Ember Therapeutics has an option to license the molecule, which could represent a new way to treat obesity.
