Bone morphogenetic protein 7 (BMP7), a member of the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-
β) family, plays pivotal roles in energy expenditure. However, whether and how BMP7 …

Brown adipose tissue (BAT) and white adipose tissue (WAT) are known to regulate lipid
metabolism. A lower amount of BAT compared to WAT, along with adipose tissue …

Brown adipocyte lineage commitment and differentiation are under complex regulation.
Brown adipocytes are derived from mesenchymal stem cells (MSC). Whether porcine bone …

Brown adipocytes were proposed to reverse metabolic conditions such as obesity and
diabetes, which make them potential for therapeutic applications. Brown adipocytes and …

In addition to their pivotal roles in energy storage and expenditure, adipose tissues play a
crucial part in the secretion of bioactive molecules, including peptides, lipids, metabolites …

Mechanisms behind the emergence of brown adipocyte‐like (brite or beige) adipocytes
within white adipose tissue (WAT) are of interest. Retinoblastoma protein gene (Rb) …

Since the discovery of leptin in 1994, our vision of adipose tissue as a static organ regulating
mainly lipid storage and release has been completely overthrown, and adipose tissue is …
