Euthyroid status is essential for the perinatal increase in thermogenin mRNA in brown adipose tissue of rat pups.

open access: yesBiochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1987
The amount of mRNA coding for the brown-fat specific, uncoupling protein thermogenin was followed perinatally in fetuses and newborns from normal and hypothyroid rat dams. Although the growth of the fetuses and newborns was normal in the hypothyroid group, they had a lower amount of thermogenin mRNA already in-utero, and the dramatic postnatal increase

Alpha- and beta-adrenergic induction of the expression of the uncoupling protein thermogenin in brown adipocytes differentiated in culture.

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1990
In order to examine the control of expression of the gene coding for the brown fat specific uncoupling protein thermogenin (UCP), brown fat cells isolated as undifferentiated precursors from the interscapular brown adipose tissue of young mice were grown in culture.

Norepinephrine‐induced synthesis of the uncoupling protein thermogenin (UCP) and its mitochondrial targeting in brown adipocytes differentiated in culture [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1990
Synthesis of the brown adipocyte‐specifie mitochondrial uncoupling protein thermogenin (UCP) is demonstrated here in brown adipocytes differentiated in culture from precursor cells. By immunoblotting, no UCP was detectable in untreated multilocular adipocytes. The synthesis of UCP was stimulated by norepinephrine at physiological concentrations and was

Stabilization of the mRNA for the uncoupling protein thermogenin by transcriptional/translational blockade and by noradrenaline in brown adipocytes differentiated in culture: a degradation factor induced by cessation of stimulation? [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1994
The stability of the mRNA coding for the uncoupling protein thermogenin was investigated in mouse brown-fat cells differentiated in culture. After 7 days in culture, the cells were stimulated for 24 h with noradrenaline, and a high level of thermogenin mRNA was then observed.

Cold exposure induces different uncoupling-protein thermogenin masking/unmasking processes in brown adipose tissue depending on mitochondrial subtypes. [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1994
The effect of cold exposure on thermogenic parameters such as mitochondrial protein content, GDP-binding and uncoupling protein (UCP) levels in different mitochondrial fractions from rat brown adipose tissue has been investigated. Rats were exposed from 12 h to 5 days at 4 degrees C, and three mitochondrial fractions were isolated by differential ...

Dermal white adipose tissue development and metabolism: The role of transcription factor Foxn1

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 37, Issue 10, October 2023., 2023
Role of transcription factor Foxn1 in regulation of the adipogenic process and lipid metabolism in intact and post‐wounded skin. Abstract Intradermal adipocytes form dermal white adipose tissue (dWAT), a unique fat depot localized in the lower layer of the dermis.

Improvement in thermoregulation outcomes following the implementation of a thermoregulation bundle for preterm infants

open access: yesJournal of Paediatrics and Child Health, Volume 58, Issue 7, Page 1201-1208, July 2022., 2022
Aim Hypothermia is associated with increased morbidity and mortality in preterm infants. A local audit revealed 60% preterm infants ≤32 weeks gestation and/or very low birth weight (VLBW) infants (<1500 g) had an abnormal body temperature at admission.

Inhibition of CXXC5 function reverses obesity‐related metabolic diseases

open access: yesClinical and Translational Medicine, Volume 12, Issue 4, April 2022., 2022
CXXC5 is abundantly expressed in the adipose tissues from obese‐T2DM patients. Ablation of Cxxc5 resists obesity‐related metabolic diseases. KY19334, a small molecule blocking CXXC5‐Dvl binding, reverses obesity‐related metabolic diseases with adult tissue remodelling. Effects on glycaemic control with KY19334 prolong during post‐treatment.

Melatonin Supplementation and Anthropometric Indices: A Randomized Double‐Blind Controlled Clinical Trial

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
Obesity, as the most common metabolic disorder in the world, is characterized by excess body fat. This study is aimed at determining the effects of melatonin supplementation on body weight, nody mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), and body fat mass percentage (BFMP) in people with overweight or obesity.

Targeting Mitochondrial Biogenesis with Polyphenol Compounds

open access: yesOxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
Appropriate mitochondrial physiology is an essential for health and survival. Cells have developed unique mechanisms to adapt to stress circumstances and changes in metabolic demands, by meditating mitochondrial function and number. In this context, sufficient mitochondrial biogenesis is necessary for efficient cell function and haemostasis, which is ...
