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

There and Back Again: Leptin Actions in White Adipose Tissue
Leptin is a hormone discovered almost 30 years ago with important implications in metabolism. It is primarily produced by white adipose tissue (WAT) in proportion to the amount of fat. The discovery of leptin was a turning point for two principle reasons:

Hysteresis of White Adipose Tissue
Objective: This study was performed to analyze the modifications within adipose tissue during calorie restriction and more specifically to state whether hysteresis occurs during fat mass reduction. Method: Rats male Wistar increased their body weight by 130 g under control conditions and were then submitted to a calorie restriction (CR) at 30% or 60 ...

Adipokines: inflammation and the pleiotropic role of white adipose tissue
White adipose tissue is now recognised to be a multifunctional organ; in addition to the central role of lipid storage, it has a major endocrine function secreting several hormones, notably leptin and adiponectin, and a diverse range of other protein ...

Effect of Thyroid Hormones on Adipose Tissue Flexibility [PDF]
The recruitment and activation of energy-consuming brown adipocytes is currently considered as potential therapeutic approach to combat obesity. Thyroid hormones (TH) significantly contribute to full thermogenic capacity of brown adipocytes.

miR-34a-/- mice are susceptible to diet-induced obesity [PDF]
Objective: MicroRNA (miR)−34a regulates inflammatory pathways, and increased transcripts have been observed in serum and subcutaneous adipose of subjects who have obesity and type 2 diabetes.

Role of glucocorticoid receptor (GR) in white adipose tissue beiging [PDF]
Aim: Glucocorticoids (GCs) play a crucial role in energy homeostasis including white adipose tissue function; however, chronic GC excess is detrimental to mammals' health.

miR-155 regulates differentiation of brown and beige adipocytes via a bistable circuit [PDF]
Brown adipocytes are a primary site of energy expenditure and reside not only in classical brown adipose tissue but can also be found in white adipose tissue.
