Kazumasa Miyawaki,Yuichiro Yamada,Nobuhiro Ban,Yu Ihara,Katsushi Tsukiyama,Heying Zhou,Shimpei Fujimoto,Akira Oku,Kinsuke Tsuda,Shinya Toyokuni,Hiroshi Hiai,Wataru Mizunoya,Tohru Fushiki,Jens J. Holst,Mitsuhiro Makino,Akira Tashita,Yukari Kobara,Yoshiharu Tsubamoto,Takayoshi Jinnouchi,Takahito Jomori,Yutaka Seino +20 more
TL;DR: GIP directly links overnutrition to obesity and it is a potential target for anti-obesity drugs.
Journal ArticleDOI
FSP27 contributes to efficient energy storage in murine white adipocytes by promoting the formation of unilocular lipid droplets
Naonobu Nishino,Yoshikazu Tamori,Sanshiro Tateya,Takayuki Kawaguchi,Tetsuro Shibakusa,Wataru Mizunoya,Kazuo Inoue,Riko Kitazawa,Sohei Kitazawa,Yasushi Matsuki,Ryuji Hiramatsu,Satoru Masubuchi,Asako Omachi,Kazuhiro Kimura,Masayuki Saito,Taku Amo,Shigeo Ohta,Tomohiro Yamaguchi,Takashi Osumi,Jinglei Cheng,Toyoshi Fujimoto,Harumi Nakao,Kazuki Nakao,Atsu Aiba,Hitoshi Okamura,Tohru Fushiki,Masato Kasuga +26 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that FSP27 contributes to efficient energy storage in WAT by promoting the formation of unilocular lipid droplets, thereby restricting lipolysis and finding that the nature of lipid accumulation in Wat appears to be associated with maintenance of energy balance and insulin sensitivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fibroblast growth factor 21 regulates lipolysis in white adipose tissue but is not required for ketogenesis and triglyceride clearance in liver.
Yuhei Hotta,Hirotoshi Nakamura,Morichika Konishi,Yusuke Murata,Hiroyuki Takagi,Shigenobu Matsumura,Kazuo Inoue,Tohru Fushiki,Nobuyuki Itoh +8 more
TL;DR: The present results indicate that Fgf21 regulates lipolysis in adipocytes in response to the metabolic state but is not required for ketogenesis and triglyceride clearance in the liver.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aquaporin 7 deficiency is associated with development of obesity through activation of adipose glycerol kinase
Toshiyuki Hibuse,Norikazu Maeda,Tohru Funahashi,Kaori Yamamoto,Azumi Nagasawa,Wataru Mizunoya,Ken Kishida,Kazuo Inoue,Hiroshi Kuriyama,Tadashi Nakamura,Tohru Fushiki,Shinji Kihara,Iichiro Shimomura +12 more
TL;DR: A series of results indicate that AQP7 disruption elevates adipose glycerol kinase activity, accelerates triglycerides synthesis in adipocytes, and, finally, develops obesity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expression of the putative membrane fatty acid transporter (FAT) in taste buds of the circumvallate papillae in rats.
Tsutomu Fukuwatari,Teruo Kawada,Miho Tsuruta,Takenori Hiraoka,Toshihiko Iwanaga,Etsuro Sugimoto,Tohru Fushiki +6 more
TL;DR: Immunohistochemical staining revealed that immunoreactivity for FAT is specifically localized in the apical part of taste bud cells, possibly gustatory cells, in the circumvallate papillae.
