TLDR
It is demonstrated that subcutaneous adipose tissue of type 2 diabetics contains considerably more sphingolipids than non-diabetic, BMI-matched counterparts and that newly synthesized adipocyte sphingoipids are nutrient signals that drive changes in the adipose phenotype to influence whole-body energy expenditure and nutrient metabolism.About:

Mechanisms of Insulin Action and Insulin Resistance
TL;DR: This work aims to develop an integrated physiological perspective, placing the intricate signaling effectors that carry out the cell-autonomous response to insulin in the context of the tissue-specific functions that generate the coordinated organismal response.

TL;DR: Mechanistic studies revealed ceramide actions that promoted lipid uptake and storage and impaired glucose utilization, none of which could be recapitulated by (dihydro)ceramides that lacked the critical double bond, suggest that inhibition of DES1 may provide a means of treating hepatic steatosis and metabolic disorders.

Contribution of Adipose Tissue Inflammation to the Development of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Maggie S Burhans,Maggie S Burhans,Derek K. Hagman,Jessica N. Kuzma,Kelsey A Schmidt,Kelsey A Schmidt,Mario Kratz,Mario Kratz +7 more
TL;DR: Taken together, adipose tissue inflammation is a key factor in the development of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes in obesity, along with other factors that likely include inflammation and fat accumulation in other metabolically active tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of hypoxia-inducible factors in metabolic diseases
TL;DR: This Review focuses on the function of hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs) in controlling metabolism and their influence in metabolic diseases (including obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease).
Journal ArticleDOI
Adipocyte and lipid metabolism in cancer drug resistance.
TL;DR: Mechanisms underlying cancer-associated adipocytes and lipid metabolic reprogramming in cancer drug resistance are discussed, which are likely to influence the response to cancer treatment.

Chronic inflammation in fat plays a crucial role in the development of obesity-related insulin resistance.
Haiyan Xu,Glenn Barnes,Qing Yang,Guo Tan,Daseng Yang,Chieh J. Chou,Jason Sole,Andrew Nichols,Jeffrey S. Ross,Louis A. Tartaglia,Hong Chen +10 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that obesity-related insulin resistance is, at least in part, a chronic inflammatory disease initiated in adipose tissue, and that macrophage-related inflammatory activities may contribute to the pathogenesis of obesity-induced insulin resistance.

Distance Regularized Level Set Evolution and Its Application to Image Segmentation
TL;DR: A new variational level set formulation in which the regularity of the level set function is intrinsically maintained during thelevel set evolution called distance regularized level set evolution (DRLSE), which eliminates the need for reinitialization and thereby avoids its induced numerical errors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Conditional gene targeting in macrophages and granulocytes using LysMcre mice.
TL;DR: The generation of mice that express Cre in myeloid cells due to targeted insertion of the cre cDNA into their endogenous M lysozyme locus is reported, allowing for both specific and highly efficient Cre–mediated deletion of loxP–flanked target genes in myELoid cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Obesity-induced inflammatory changes in adipose tissue
TL;DR: This issue of the JCI reports that obese adipose tissue is characterized by macrophage infiltration and that these macrophages are an important source of inflammation in this tissue.
Journal ArticleDOI
Starvation in man.
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that decreased levels of active T3 may play a role by sparing otherwise obligated calories by decreasing metabolic needs, but this can be nullified by amino acid or protein supplementation.
