Control of Adipose Cell Browning and Its Therapeutic Potential

Metabolites, 2020
Adipose tissue is the largest endocrine organ in humans and has an important influence on many physiological processes throughout life. An increasing number of studies have described the different phenotypic characteristics of fat cells in adults ...

Advances in the Protective Effects and Mechanisms of β‐Aminoisobutyric Acid in Maintaining Multi‐Organ Homeostasis

Medicine Bulletin, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT β‐Aminoisobutyric acid (BAIBA) is an exercise‐responsive myokine/metabolite released by skeletal muscle and has attracted increasing interest as a potential exercise mimetic and therapeutic candidate in preclinical research. BAIBA acts locally in skeletal muscle and can also reach distal organs through the circulation, contributing to the ...

Browning of white fat : agents and implications for beige adipose tissue to type 2 diabetes [PDF]

, 2018
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

Microplastics and the Endocrine–Metabolic Interface: Novel Diagnostic Tools Targeting Thyroid–Adipose Axis

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microplastics (MPs) have been identified as major environmental contaminants that can affect organisms directly and act as carriers of particles and chemical additives, thereby aggravating endocrine networks that coordinate metabolic homeostasis.

Understanding the Type 2 Immunity: An Evolving View Beyond Allergic Diseases

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Type 2 (T2) immunity is classically associated with defense against helminths and environmental threats, from a physiological perspective, and with allergies and eosinophilic inflammatory diseases, in a pathological sense. However, growing evidence reveals that T2 pathways also support other essential homeostatic functions, including tissue ...

CMKLR1 senses chemerin/resolvin E1 to control adipose thermogenesis and modulate metabolic homeostasis

Fundamental Research
Induction of beige fat for thermogenesis is a potential therapy to improve homeostasis against obesity. β3-adrenoceptor (β3-AR), a type of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), is believed to mediate the thermogenesis of brown fat in mice.

Re‐thinking peripheral dysfunctions in obesity: The emerging role of sulphaceutics and sulphanutraceutics

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Obesity is a chronic, relapsing, multisystem disease in which cardiometabolic risk arises from excess adiposity and progressive dysfunction of peripheral organs, ultimately disrupting endocrine and metabolic crosstalk among tissues. Within this network, sulphur‐based biology, centred on hydrogen sulphide and related reactive sulphur species, has ...

(20R)-panaxadiol improves obesity by promoting white fat beigeing

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
Introduction: Obesity is an important cause of a range of metabolic diseases. However, the complex mechanisms of obesity and its related diseases make some weight loss methods ineffective or have safety issues. Ginseng, a specialty of Jilin Province in China with both edible and medicinal value, contains mainly ginsenosides and other components.

Naturally coloured poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate)

Coloration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study reports an innovative approach for producing intrinsically coloured poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate) [P(3HB)] films by incorporating natural dyes—turmeric, paprika, annatto, beetroot and hibiscus—directly into the fermentation medium of Ralstonia solanacearum RS.

RIP140 represses the “Brown-in-White” adipocyte program including a futile cycle of triacyclglycerol breakdown and synthesis [PDF]

, 2014
Receptor-interacting protein 140 (RIP140) is a corepressor of nuclear receptors that is highly expressed in adipose tissues. We investigated the role of RIP140 in conditionally immortal preadipocyte cell lines prepared from white or brown fat depots.
