Adipocyte lipid synthesis coupled to neuronal control of thermogenic programming [PDF]
, 2017 BACKGROUND: The de novo biosynthesis of fatty acids (DNL) through fatty acid synthase (FASN) in adipocytes is exquisitely regulated by nutrients, hormones, fasting, and obesity in mice and humans. However, the functions of DNL in adipocyte biology and in

The dorsal aortic compartment is a developmental source of brown adipose tissue in mice [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsWhite adipose tissue primarily stores energy while brown adipose tissue dissipates energy as heat, holding promise for therapeutic use. Brown adipose tissue in the anterior trunk is believed to derive from the somitic mesoderm, although some depots are ...

Invited review: Pre- and postnatal adipose tissue development in farm animals: from stem cells to adipocyte physiology [PDF]
Animal, 2016 Both white and brown adipose tissues are recognized to be differently involved in energy metabolism and are also able to secrete a variety of factors called adipokines that are involved in a wide range of physiological and metabolic functions.

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2023 Overweight and obesity have become a world-wide problem. However, effective intervention approaches are limited. Brown adipose tissue, which helps maintain body temperature and contributes to thermogenesis, is dependent on uncoupling protein1.

Fatty Acid Metabolite Profiling Reveals Oxylipins as Markers of Brown but Not Brite Adipose Tissue
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2020 Metabolites of omega-6 and omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids are important signaling molecules implicated in the control of adipogenesis and energy balance regulation.

Thermogenic ability of uncoupling protein 1 in beige adipocytes in mice. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Chronic adrenergic activation leads to the emergence of beige adipocytes in some depots of white adipose tissue in mice. Despite their morphological similarities to brown adipocytes and their expression of uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1), a thermogenic ...

iScience, 2023 Summary: Adipose tissue from pheochromocytoma patients acquires brown fat features, making it a valuable model for studying the mechanisms that control thermogenic adipose plasticity in humans. Transcriptomic analyses revealed a massive downregulation of

Assessment of brown adipose tissue function
Frontiers in Physiology, 2013 In this review we discuss practical considerations for the assessment of brown adipose tissue in rodent models, focusing on mice. The central aim of the review is to provide a critical appraisal of the utility of specialised techniques for assessing ...

The kallikrein–kinin pathway as a mechanism for auto-control of brown adipose tissue activity
Nature Communications, 2020 Brown adipose tissue, known produce heat by metabolizing fat, is also secretes molecules capable of communicating with other organs. Here the authors show that brown adipose tissue secretes kininogen, a component of heat system regulation, that provides ...
