Fucoidan reinforce mitophagy in brown adipose tissue thermogenesis to protect against obesity

Carbohydrate Polymer Technologies and Applications
Background: Obesity is a global health issue, characterized by metabolic dysfunction. Brown adipose tissue (BAT) plays a crucial role in energy expenditure and thermogenesis.

Human RSPO1 Mutation Represses Beige Adipocyte Thermogenesis and Contributes to Diet‐Induced Adiposity

Advanced Science, 2023
Recent genetic evidence has linked WNT downstream mutations to fat distribution. However, the roles of WNTs in human obesity remain unclear. Here, the authors screen all Wnt‐related paracrine factors in 1994 obese cases and 2161 controls using whole ...

Syncing Health Timing: Exploring the Interplay of Circadian Rhythms, Obesity, and Cardiovascular Diseases

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Circadian rhythm disruption impairs metabolic regulation, appetite control, and vascular function, promoting obesity and cardiovascular diseases. Evidence highlights a bidirectional relationship where metabolic disorders further disturb circadian timing.

Nested Selves: Self‐Organization and Shared Markov Blankets in Prenatal Development in Humans

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract The immune system is a central component of organismic function in humans. This paper addresses self‐organization of biological systems in relation to—and nested within—other biological systems in pregnancy. Pregnancy constitutes a fundamental state for human embodiment and a key step in the evolution and conservation of our species. While not

Cold exposure induces lipid dynamics and thermogenesis in brown adipose tissue of goats

BMC Genomics, 2022
Background Adaptive thermogenesis by brown adipose tissue (BAT) is important to the maintenance of temperature in newborn mammals. Cold exposure activates gene expression and lipid metabolism to provide energy for BAT thermogenesis. However, knowledge of

The impact of dietary factors on the function of brown and beige adipose tissues—implications on health and disease

Frontiers in Nutrition
The development of strategies that promote the activation of adaptive thermogenesis in brown and beige adipose tissues is expected to lead to advances in the prevention and treatment of obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases.

Adaptive thermogenesis in humans [PDF]

International Journal of Obesity, 2010
The increasing prevalence of obesity and its comorbidities reflects the interaction of genes that favor the storage of excess energy as fat with an environment that provides ad libitum availability of energy-dense foods and encourages an increasingly sedentary lifestyle.

A brown fat-enriched adipokine Adissp controls adipose thermogenesis and glucose homeostasis

Nature Communications, 2022
The signaling mechanisms regulating adipose thermogenesis have not been fully elucidated. Here, the authors show that a brown fat-enriched adipokine ADISSP promotes adipose thermogenesis and improves metabolic health independently of b-adrenergic ...

Chemogenetic Excitation of Ventromedial Hypothalamic Steroidogenic Factor 1 (SF1) Neurons Increases Muscle Thermogenesis in Mice

Biomolecules
Allostatic adaptations to a perceived threat are crucial for survival and may tap into mechanisms serving the homeostatic control of energy balance. We previously established that exposure to predator odor (PO) in rats significantly increases skeletal ...

Bile acid metabolism and signaling in human and animal health: A One Health perspective

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Bile acids maintain host homeostasis through enterohepatic circulation, microbial transformation, and bile acid receptor signaling, thereby regulating glucose and lipid metabolism, intestinal barrier integrity, and immunity. These effects support human disease intervention and health‐oriented animal production, reducing drug dependence and residue ...
