Journal ArticleDOI

A secreted slit2 fragment regulates adipose tissue thermogenesis and metabolic function

TL;DR: This work identifies Slit2, a 180 kDa member of the Slit extracellular protein family, as a PRDM16-regulated secreted factor from beige fat cells that has therapeutic potential for the treatment of obesity and related metabolic disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lamin A/C depletion enhances DNA damage-induced stalled replication fork arrest

TL;DR: It is proposed that lamin A/C is required for maintaining genomic stability following replication fork stalling, induced by either ICL damage or replicative stress, in order to facilitate fork regression prior to DNA damage repair.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lysine-specific demethylase 1 promotes brown adipose tissue thermogenesis via repressing glucocorticoid activation

TL;DR: These findings establish a novel regulatory pathway connecting histone modification and hormone activation with mitochondrial oxidative capacity and whole-body energy homeostasis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Crosstalk between KCNK3-Mediated Ion Current and Adrenergic Signaling Regulates Adipose Thermogenesis and Obesity.

TL;DR: A critical K+-Ca2+-adrenergic signaling axis is uncovered that acts to dampen thermogenesis, maintain tissue homeostasis, and reveal an electrophysiological regulatory mechanism of adipocyte function.
