CD47 differentially regulates white and brown fat function

open access: yesBiology Open, 2020
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.

Signal regulatory protein alpha initiates cachexia through muscle to adipose tissue crosstalk [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
BACKGROUND: Muscle wasting from chronic kidney disease (CKD) or from defective insulin signalling results in morbidity and, ultimately, mortality. We have identified an endogenous mediator of insulin resistance, signal regulatory protein alpha (SIRPα ...

Brown adipose tissue [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Obesity is currently a global pandemic, and is associated with increased mortality and co-morbidities including many metabolic diseases. Obesity is characterized by an increase in adipose mass due to increased energy intake, decreased energy expenditure,

The adipose tissue: something more than a reservoir of energy

open access: yesGrasas y Aceites, 2009
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 ...

Lactate and the GPR81 receptor in metabolic regulation: implications for adipose tissue function and fatty acid utilisation by muscle during exercise [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Lactate is increasingly recognised to be more than a simple end product of anaerobic glycolysis. Skeletal muscle and white adipose tissue are considered to be the main sites of lactate production and release.

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.

Roles of FGFs as adipokines in adipose tissue development, remodeling, and metabolism

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2014
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

Epigenetic regulation of white adipose tissue plasticity and energy metabolism by nucleosome binding HMGN proteins

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
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

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
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).
