Noggin depletion in adipocytes promotes obesity in mice. [PDF]
ObjectiveObesity has increased to pandemic levels and enhanced understanding of adipose regulation is required for new treatment strategies. Although bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) influence adipogenesis, the effect of BMP antagonists such as Noggin ...

GALNT2 as a novel modulator of adipogenesis and adipocyte insulin signaling [PDF]
Background/objectives: A better understanding of adipose tissue biology is crucial to tackle insulin resistance and eventually coronary heart disease and diabetes, leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide.

MicroRNA networks regulate development of brown adipocytes [PDF]
Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is specialized for heat generation and energy expenditure as a defense against cold and obesity; in both humans and mice increased amounts of BAT are associated with a lean phenotype and resistance to development of the metabolic syndrome and its complications.

Deletion of Spinophilin Promotes White Adipocyte Browning
Browning of white adipose tissue (WAT) is suggested as a promising therapeutic approach to induce energy expenditure and counteract obesity and its associated complications. Systemic depletion of spinophilin (SPL) increases metabolism and improves energy balance in mice.

Reporting guidelines, review of methodological standards, and challenges toward harmonization in bone marrow adiposity research. Report of the Methodologies Working Group of the International Bone Marrow Adiposity Society [PDF]
The interest in bone marrow adiposity (BMA) has increased over the last decade due to its association with, and potential role, in a range of diseases (osteoporosis, diabetes, anorexia, cancer) as well as treatments (corticosteroid, radiation ...

Perilipin regulates the thermogenic actions of norepinephrine in brown adipose tissue [PDF]
In response to cold, norepinephrine (NE)-induced triacylglycerol hydrolysis (lipolysis) in adipocytes of brown adipose tissue (BAT) provides fatty acid substrates to mitochondria for heat generation (adaptive thermogenesis).

Physiologically-induced adipocyte browning
The data consistently suggests that expansion and activation of beige/brite adipose tissue may possibly serve as a novel cure for obesity and obesity-related complications. Interestingly, besides well-known agents affecting adipocyte transformation, such as cold-induced sympathetic stimulation, the vast majority of biological systems (e.g ...

Expression of inflammation-related genes is associated with adipose tissue location in horses [PDF]
Background : In humans, adipose tissue (AT) originating from different depots shows varying gene expression profiles. In horses, the risk of certain metabolic disorders may also be influenced by the impact of specific AT depots.

Hyperplasia of brown adipose tissue (BAT) is a fundamental mechanism for adaptation to survive in the cold environment in rodents. To determine which cell types comprising BAT contribute to tissue hyperplasia, immunohistochemical analysis using a ...
