Journal ArticleDOI
Sexual dimorphism in white and brown adipose tissue with obesity and inflammation.
Ian Bloor,Michael E. Symonds +1 more
TL;DR: This review further considers how BAT impacts upon on the relationship between excess adiposity, gender, inflammation and endocrine signalling and could thus ultimately be a target to prevent obesity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Caffeine exposure induces browning features in adipose tissue in vitro and in vivo
Ksenija Velickovic,Declan Wayne,Hilda Anaid Lugo Leija,Ian Bloor,David E. Morris,James Law,Helen Budge,Harold S. Sacks,Michael E. Symonds,Virginie Sottile +9 more
TL;DR: Results demonstrate that caffeine can promote BAT function at thermoneutrality and may have the potential to be used therapeutically in adult humans.
Journal ArticleDOI
The influence of sex steroids on adipose tissue growth and function.
TL;DR: This review explores how modifications in the effects of sex hormones impact on both brown and white adipose tissues and how the three pathways between adiposity, HPA and sex steroids can have a major contribution to the prevention or maintenance of obesity and therefore on overall health.
Journal ArticleDOI
Low temperature exposure induces browning of bone marrow stem cell derived adipocytes in vitro
Ksenija Velickovic,Hilda Anaid Lugo Leija,Ian Bloor,James Law,Harold S. Sacks,Michael E. Symonds,Virginie Sottile +6 more
TL;DR: It is reported that BM-MSC can be driven to forming beige-like adipocytes in vitro by exposure to a reduced temperature, indicating that the precise role of leptin and related hormones in hitherto functions in the browning process is still unknown.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exercise Training in Obese Rats Does Not Induce Browning at Thermoneutrality and Induces a Muscle-Like Signature in Brown Adipose Tissue
Peter Aldiss,Jo E. Lewis,Irene Lupini,Ian Bloor,Ramyar Chavoshinejad,David J. Boocock,Amanda K. Miles,Francis J. P. Ebling,Helen Budge,Michael E. Symonds +9 more
TL;DR: Exercise training reduced weight gain in obese animals at thermoneutrality and is accompanied by an oxidative signature in BAT which isaccompanied by a muscle-like signature rather than induction of thermogenic genes.
