Functional Implications of DNA Methylation in Adipose Biology. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The twin epidemics of obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D) are a serious health, social, and economic issue. The dysregulation of adipose tissue biology is central to the development of these two metabolic disorders, as adipose tissue plays a pivotal role ...

Impact of C18 Epimerization of Indole‐ and Pyrazole‐Fused 18β‐Glycyrrhetinic Acid Derivatives on PTP1B and TCPTP Inhibitory Activity: Synthesis, In Vitro, and In Silico Studies

open access: yesChemMedChem, EarlyView.
The indole derivative (FC‐114) and the N‐phenylpyrazole (FC‐122) of glycyrrhetinic acid are both potent inhibitors of the Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase 1B, with IC50 values of 0.48 μM and 1.15 μM, respectively. However, their activity decreases by up to four times when the 18β‐H position is epimerized to 18α‐H or when the carbonyl group at the C11 ...

Inter-individual variation in gene expression in torpid and interbout euthermic Arctic ground squirrels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Thesis (M.S.) University of Alaska Fairbanks, 2006Alaskan Arctic ground squirrels, Spermophilus paryii, hibernate about seven months per year. During two-week torpor periods, respiration, circulation, metabolism, and catabolism are dramatically decreased,

Dual Targeting Approach Using 4‐Hydroxytamoxifen Neuropeptide Y Conjugates for Selective Addressing of Adipose Tissue

open access: yesChemMedChem, EarlyView.
The [F7,P34]‐pNPY based peptide‐drug conjugate targets the Y1 receptor and induces internalization. Once inside the cell, 4‐hydroxytamoxifen is cleaved from the peptide and is released into the cytosol, where it activates the estrogen receptor α. This dual‐targeting mechanism aims to promote body weight loss and offers a potential therapeutic strategy ...

White-to-Beige and Back: Adipocyte Conversion and Transcriptional Reprogramming

open access: yesPharmaceuticals
Obesity has become a pandemic, as currently more than half a billion people worldwide are obese. The etiology of obesity is multifactorial, and combines a contribution of hereditary and behavioral factors, such as nutritional inadequacy, along with the ...

Rodent monocyte‐derived macrophages do not express CD163: Comparative analysis using macrophages from living boreoeutherians

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background CD163 is a scavenger receptor predominantly expressed on the surfaces of macrophages in various mammalian species and is a marker of anti‐inflammatory (M2‐like) macrophages. High density of CD163‐positive tumor‐associated macrophages (TAMs) is associated with worse prognosis in various patient tumors.

Combinatorial expression of glial transcription factors induces Schwann cell‐specific gene expression in mouse embryonic fibroblasts

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Schwann cells provide peripheral nerve trophic support, myelinate axons, and assist in repair. However, Schwann cell repair capacity is limited by chronic injury, disease, and aging. Schwann cell reprogramming is a cellular conversion strategy that could provide a renewable cell supply to repair injured nerves.
