Adipose tissue functions in terms of energy homeostasis as a rheostat for blood triglyceride, regulating its concentration, in response to external stimuli. In addition it acts as a barometer to inform the central nervous system of energy levels which can vary dramatically between meals and accor...
Cd248 has recently been associated with adipose tissue physiology, demonstrated by reduced weight gain in high fat diet-fed mice with genetic deletion of Cd248 relative to controls. Here we set out to determine the metabolic consequences of loss of Cd248. Strikingly, we find these to be sex speci...
To identify the potential iWAT-derived adipokines that regulate intestinal IgA biosynthesis, we conducted untargeted metabolomics in the serum of iFR and iSham mice. A total of 214 differential abundant metabolites were identified (log2FC >1 or <-1 and adjusted p-value <0.05) between the...
Metabolic reprogramming in malignant cells is a hallmark of cancer that relies on augmented glycolytic metabolism to support their growth, invasion and metastasis. However, the impact of global adipose metabolism on tumor growth and the drug development by targeting adipose metabolism remain larg...
The central nervous system has been implicated in the age-induced reduction in adipose tissue lipolysis. SLC7A14 is a lysosomal membrane protein highly expressed in the brain. Herein, we investigated the possible role of hypothalamic SLC7A14 in the age-induced lipolysis reduction. In this study, ...
Cecal content metabolome was performed on high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obese mice to investigate the impact of Christensenella intestinihominis MNO-863 on the gut metabolome. The obese&nbs...
