CD47 differentially regulates white and brown fat function
Mechanisms that enhance energy expenditure are attractive therapeutic targets for obesity. Previously we have demonstrated that mice lacking cd47 are leaner, exhibit increased energy expenditure, and are protected against diet-induced obesity.

The adipose tissue: something more than a reservoir of energy
Adipose tissue is a reservoir of energy and also an organ that contributes to the aesthetics and health of human body working as an endocrine tissue. White adipose tissue, which is formed by unilocular adipose cells, can modify organic homeostasis by ...

Roles of FGFs as adipokines in adipose tissue development, remodeling, and metabolism
White and brown adipose tissues, which store and burn lipids, respectively, play critical roles in energy homeostasis. Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) are signaling proteins with diverse functions in development, metabolism, and neural function. Among

White adipose tissue browning plays an important role in regulating whole-body energy homeostasis and metabolism. Here the authors show that the HMGN nucleosome binding proteins epigenetically promote white adipocyte differentiation and modulate the rate

Latest Advancements on Combating Obesity by Targeting Human Brown/Beige Adipose Tissues
Obesity is defined as overaccumulation of white adipose tissue in the body, mainly under the skin (subcutaneous adiposity) or in the abdominal cavity (visceral adiposity).

Effects of Different Fasting Modes Combined with Exercise Training on Browning of White Adipose Tissue in Mice [PDF]
To investigate the effect of intermittent fasting (IF) combined with exercise on browning of white adipose tissue (WAT), we randomly divided male C57BL/6 mice aged 5–6 weeks into six groups: control (Con), exercise (Ex), alternate-day fasting (ADF ...

Mammalian adipose tissue can be divided into two major types, namely, white adipose tissue (WAT) and brown adipose tissue (BAT). According to classical view, the main function of WAT is to store excess energy in the form of triglycerides, while BAT is a ...

The immune and endocrine dysfunctions of white adipose tissue are a hallmark of metabolic disorders such as obesity and type 2 diabetes. In humans, white adipose tissue comprises distinct depots broadly distributed under the skin (hypodermis) and as ...
