Association between specific adipose tissue CD4+ T-cell populations and insulin resistance in obese individuals

TL;DR: Adipose tissue from MAO individuals contains increased numbers of Th17 and Th22 cells, which produce cytokines that cause metabolic dysfunction in liver and muscle in vitro, which contributes to the pathogenesis of insulin resistance in obese people.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trehalose inhibits solute carrier 2A (SLC2A) proteins to induce autophagy and prevent hepatic steatosis

TL;DR: Trehalose-mediated inhibition of glucose transport induced AMPK (adenosine 5′-monophosphate–activated protein kinase)–dependent autophagy and regression of hepatic steatosis in vivo and a reduction in the accumulation of lipid droplets in primary murine hepatocyte cultures.
Journal ArticleDOI

The PPAR regulatory system in cardiac physiology and disease.

TL;DR: A review will summarize the findings and other recent studies regarding the effects of experimental PPAR activation and deactivation and its potential impact on cardiomyopathic remodeling.
