Journal ArticleDOI
Sex differences in sympathetic innervation and browning of white adipose tissue of mice
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that female mice are more responsive than males to the recruitment of brown adipocytes in gonadal WAT and this difference corresponds to greater levels of estrogen-dependent sympathetic innervation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adipogenic role of alternatively activated macrophages in β-adrenergic remodeling of white adipose tissue
TL;DR: Data indicate that noninflammatory removal of adipocyte remnants and coordinated generation of PPARγ ligands by M2 macrophages provides localized adipogenic signals to support de novo brown/beige adipogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metabolic heterogeneity of activated beige/brite adipocytes in inguinal adipose tissue.
TL;DR: Global transcriptomic analysis of FACS-isolated adipocytes confirmed the presence of distinct anabolic and catabolic phenotypes, and identified differential expression of transcriptional pathways known to regulate lipid synthesis and oxidation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Connexin 43 is required for the maintenance of mitochondrial integrity in brown adipose tissue
Sang Nam Kim,Hyun Jung Kwon,Seo Woo Im,Yeon Ho Son,Seun Akindehin,Young Suk Jung,Se Jeong Lee,Im Joo Rhyu,Il Yong Kim,Je Kyoung Seong,Jinu Lee,Hee Chan Yoo,James G. Granneman,Yun Hee Lee +13 more
TL;DR: The data demonstrate that Cx43 is required for maintaining the mitochondrial integrity and metabolic activity of BAT.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sex-specific metabolic interactions between liver and adipose tissue in MCD diet-induced non-alcoholic fatty liver disease
Yun Hee Lee,Sou Hyun Kim,Sang Nam Kim,Hyun Jung Kwon,Jeong Dong Kim,Ji Youn Oh,Young Suk Jung +6 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that distinctively female-specific browning of white adipose tissue aids in protecting female mice against MCD diet-induced fatty liver disease.
