Cerenkov luminescence imaging and metabolic activity of brown adipose tissue in a mouse model of progeria

open access: yesDi-san junyi daxue xuebao, 2019
Objective To study the changes in the metabolic activity of brown adipose tissues in a mouse model of progeria using Cerenkov luminescence imaging. Methods 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging and Cerenkov luminescence imaging were used to dynamically monitor the ...

Global gene expression profiling of brown to white adipose tissue transformation in sheep reveals novel transcriptional components linked to adipose remodeling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BACKGROUND: Large mammals are capable of thermoregulation shortly after birth due to the presence of brown adipose tissue (BAT). The majority of BAT disappears after birth and is replaced by white adipose tissue (WAT).

Brown adipose tissue and thermogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesHormone Molecular Biology and Clinical Investigation, 2014
Abstract The growing understanding of adipose tissue as an important endocrine organ with multiple metabolic functions has directed the attention to the (patho)physiology of distinct fat depots. Brown adipose tissue (BAT), in contrast to bona fide white fat, can dissipate ...

mTORC2 sustains thermogenesis via Akt-induced glucose uptake and glycolysis in brown adipose tissue [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Activation of non-shivering thermogenesis (NST) in brown adipose tissue (BAT) has been proposed as an anti-obesity treatment. Moreover, cold-induced glucose uptake could normalize blood glucose levels in insulin-resistant patients.

PexRAP inhibits PRDM16-mediated thermogenic gene expression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
How the nuclear receptor PPARγ regulates the development of two functionally distinct types of adipose tissue, brown and white fat, as well as the browning of white fat, remains unclear.

Myeloid p38 activation maintains macrophage–liver crosstalk and BAT thermogenesis through IL‐12–FGF21 axis

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Physiological activation of myeloid p38 controls macrophage IL‐12 production and crosstalk to the liver by modulating hepatic FGF21, and subsequently, brown adipose tissue thermogenesis during obesity Abstract Obesity features excessive fat accumulation in several body tissues and induces a state of chronic low‐grade inflammation that contributes to ...

Thermogenic ability of uncoupling protein 1 in beige adipocytes in mice. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS 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 ...

Characterisation of human adipose tissue : ceramide metabolism, depot differences and evaluation of dysfunctionality [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Normal adipose tissue function is necessary for maintaining proper energy balance, as both excess and absence of this tissue lead to metabolic disturbances, such as insulin resistance.

Apolipoprotein F is reduced in humans with steatosis and controls plasma triglyceride‐rich lipoprotein metabolism

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Hepatic APOF transcript levels correlate inversely with plasma TG and hepatic steatosis in humans. ApoF expression in mice promotes VLDL‐TG production and lipoprotein remnant clearance in mice. Abstract Background NAFLD affects nearly 25% of the global population. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the most common cause of death among patients with NAFLD,
