Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis: A Rare Contemporary Case After a Decade of Declining Incidence
JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF) is a rare fibrosing disorder associated with exposure to gadolinium‐based contrast agents in patients with renal impairment. Although its incidence has markedly declined since the restriction of high‐risk linear gadolinium agents, sporadic cases may still occur.

Norepinephrine dependent inhibition of proteolysis in brown adipocytes [PDF]
, 2002 Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is specialized for heat production. Brown adipocytes contain an uncoupling protein (UCP-1) in the mitochondria, which uncouples oxidative phosphorylation and produces heat.

, 2018 Adipocytes are lipid-rich parenchymal cells contained in a very plastic organ, whose composition can undergo striking physiologic changes. In standard conditions the organ contains white and brown adipocytes which play opposite roles: lipid storage to ...

Mycobacterium canettii Infection of Adipose Tissues
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2017 Adipose tissues were shown to host Mycobacterium tuberculosis which is persisting inside mature adipocytes. It remains unknown whether this holds true for Mycobacterium canettii, a rare representative of the M.

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Obesity is a major risk factor for type 2 diabetes. Some traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) compounds can improve obesity by increasing energy consumption. This study aimed to identify and verify TCM compounds that promote adipose thermogenesis to alleviate obesity via transcriptomic analysis, molecular docking, network pharmacology, and ...

Blubber Thickening Driven by UCP1 Inactivation: Insights from a Cetacean‐Like Transgenic Mouse Model
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.UCP1 inactivation of cetaceans in mice drives BAT whitening and iWAT hyperplasia, promoting fat accumulation for aquatic adaptation. Abstract Cetaceans possess thick blubber, a specialized adipose tissue essential for thermal insulation, a streamlined body form, energy storage, and buoyancy. However, the mechanisms that underpin this adaptation are not

Evidence of mature adipocyte proliferation regulated by proliferin [PDF]
, 2010 Despite much research, whether mature adipocytes proliferate remains controversial. Here, we examined 5-bromo-2′-deoxyuridine (BrdU)-labelling of mature adipocytes.
