Mitochondrial dysfunction in white adipose tissue [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2012
Although mitochondria in brown adipose tissue and their role in non-shivering thermogenesis have been widely studied, we have only a limited understanding of the relevance of mitochondria in white adipose tissue (WAT) for cellular homeostasis of the adipocyte and their impact upon systemic energy homeostasis.

Adipocyte lipid synthesis coupled to neuronal control of thermogenic programming [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
BACKGROUND: The de novo biosynthesis of fatty acids (DNL) through fatty acid synthase (FASN) in adipocytes is exquisitely regulated by nutrients, hormones, fasting, and obesity in mice and humans. However, the functions of DNL in adipocyte biology and in

Lytic cocktail: An effective method to alleviate severe burn induced hyper-metabolism through regulating white adipose tissue browning

open access: yesHeliyon, 2022
Background: Browning of white adipose tissue is associated with elevated resting metabolic rates and is considered to be one of the indispensable causes of hypermetabolism in burn patients.

Hypoxia and adipose tissue function and dysfunction in obesity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The rise in the incidence of obesity has led to a major interest in the biology of white adipose tissue. The tissue is a major endocrine and signalling organ, with adipocytes, the characteristic cell type, secreting a multiplicity of protein factors ...

Sulforaphane induces adipocyte browning and promotes glucose and lipid utilization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Scope: Obesity is closely related to the imbalance of white adipose tissue storing excess calories, and brown adipose tissue dissipating energy to produce heat in mammals.

miR-34a-/- mice are susceptible to diet-induced obesity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
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.

Calcium sensing receptor as a novel mediator of adipose tissue dysfunction: mechanisms and potential clinical implications

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2016
Obesity is currently a serious worldwide public health problem, reaching pandemic levels. For decades, dietary and behavioral approaches have failed to prevent this disease from expanding, and health authorities are challenged by the elevated prevalence ...

The corticotrophin-releasing factor/urocortin system regulates white fat browning in mice through paracrine mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Objectives: The corticotrophin-releasing factor (CRF)/urocortin system is expressed in the adipose tissue of mammals, but its functional role in this tissue remains unknown.

Beige Adipose Tissue Identification and Marker Specificity—Overview

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2021
Adipose tissue (AT) is classified based on its location, physiological and functional characteristics. Although there is a clear demarcation of anatomical and molecular features specific to white (WAT) and brown adipose tissue (BAT), the factors that ...
