Journal ArticleDOI
A secreted slit2 fragment regulates adipose tissue thermogenesis and metabolic function
Katrin J. Svensson,Jonathan Z. Long,Mark P. Jedrychowski,Paul Cohen,James C. Lo,Sara Serag,Serkan Kir,Kosaku Shinoda,Julia A. Tartaglia,Rajesh R. Rao,Alain Chédotal,Shingo Kajimura,Steven P. Gygi,Bruce M. Spiegelman +13 more
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
Mayank Singh,Clayton R. Hunt,Raj K. Pandita,Rakesh Kumar,Chin-Rang Yang,Nobuo Horikoshi,Robert Bachoo,Sara Serag,Michael D. Story,Jerry W. Shay,Simon N. Powell,Arun Gupta,Jessie Jeffery,Shruti Pandita,Benjamin P C Chen,Dorothee Deckbar,Markus Löbrich,Qin Yang,Kum Kum Khanna,Howard J. Worman,Tej K. Pandita +20 more
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
Xing Zeng,Mark P. Jedrychowski,Yi Chen,Sara Serag,Gareth G. Lavery,Steve P. Gygi,Bruce M. Spiegelman +6 more
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.
Yi Chen,Xing Zeng,Xuan Huang,Sara Serag,Clifford J. Woolf,Clifford J. Woolf,Bruce M. Spiegelman +6 more
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.
Journal ArticleDOI
Attenuated PGC-1α Isoforms following Endurance Exercise with Blood Flow Restriction
Miguel S. Conceição,Mara Patricia Traina Chacon-Mikahil,Guilherme Defante Telles,Cleiton Augusto Libardi,Edson Manoel Mendes Junior,Felipe Cassaro Vechin,André L. L Andrade,Arthur Fernandes Gáspari,Patricia Chakur Brum,Cláudia Regina Cavaglieri,Sara Serag,Bruce M. Spiegelman,John A. Hawley,Donny M. Camera +13 more
TL;DR: The attenuated expression of all four PGC-1α isoforms when EE is performed with blood flow restriction suggests this type of exercise provides an insufficient stimulus to activate the signaling pathways governing mitochondrial and angiogenesis responses observed with moderate- to high-intensity EE.
