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

Latest Advancements on Combating Obesity by Targeting Human Brown/Beige Adipose Tissues
Frontiers 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).

Otopetrin 1 protects mice from obesity-associated metabolic dysfunction through attenuating adipose tissue inflammation. [PDF]
, 2014 Chronic low-grade inflammation is emerging as a pathogenic link between obesity and metabolic disease. Persistent immune activation in white adipose tissue (WAT) impairs insulin sensitivity and systemic metabolism, in part, through the actions of ...

Characterisation of human adipose tissue : ceramide metabolism, depot differences and evaluation of dysfunctionality [PDF]
, 2016 Normal adipose tissue function is necessary for maintaining proper energy balance, as both excess and absence of this tissue lead to metabolic disturbances, such as insulin resistance.

Effects of Different Fasting Modes Combined with Exercise Training on Browning of White Adipose Tissue in Mice [PDF]
Shipin KexueTo 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 ...

Ethnic differences in adiposity and diabetes risk – insights from genetic studies [PDF]
, 2020 Type 2 diabetes is more common in non-Europeans and starts at a younger age and at lower BMI cut-offs. This review discusses the insights from genetic studies about pathophysiological mechanisms which determine risk of disease with a focus on the role of
