Journal ArticleDOI
Modulation of Estrogen Receptor-α Transcriptional Activity by the Coactivator PGC-1
TL;DR: It is concluded that PGC-1 is a bona fide ERα coactivator, which may serve as a convergence point between PPARγ and ERα signaling, and may have a unique role in estrogen signaling.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differential Regulation of the p80 Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor in Human Obesity and Insulin Resistance
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that obese female subjects express approximately twofold more TNFR2 mRNA in fat tissue and approximately sixfold more solubleTNFR2 in circulation relative to lean control subjects, suggesting that TNFR 2 might play a role in human obesity by modulating the actions of TNF-α.
Journal ArticleDOI
Brown and Beige Fat: Molecular Parts of a Thermogenic Machine
Paul Cohen,Bruce M. Spiegelman +1 more
TL;DR: Some of the thermodynamic and cellular aspects of recent progress in brown fat research are discussed, including studies of developmental lineages of UCP1+ adipocytes, including the discovery of beige fat cells, a new thermogenic cell type.
Journal ArticleDOI
A fundamental system of cellular energy homeostasis regulated by PGC-1α
Lindsay M. Rohas,Julie St-Pierre,Marc Uldry,Sibylle Jäger,Christoph Handschin,Bruce M. Spiegelman +5 more
TL;DR: It is shown that mammalian cells respond to a partial chemical uncoupling of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation with a decrease in ATP levels, which recovers over several hours to control levels.
