    Hedgehog signaling via Gli2 prevents obesity induced by high-fat diet in adult mice

    Yu Shi, Fanxin Long
    Targeted activation of Hedgehog signalling via Gli2 facilitated the reduction of high-fat-diet-induced obesity and improvement of whole-body glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity in adult mice.

    The fat body cortical actin network regulates Drosophila inter-organ nutrient trafficking, signaling, and adipose cell size

    Rupali Ugrankar-Banerjee, Son Tran ... W Mike Henne
    Fat-body-specific loss of actin isoform Act5C disrupts fat body cell growth and fat storage, lipoprotein secretion, and insulin signaling, revealing a non-canonical role for the cortical actin cytoskeleton in nutrient signaling and inter-organelle trafficking.

    An alternative splicing program promotes adipose tissue thermogenesis

    Santiago Vernia, Yvonne JK Edwards ... Roger J Davis
    NOVA pre-mRNA spacing factors suppress adipose tissue energy expenditure.

    Tissue-resident macrophages promote extracellular matrix homeostasis in the mammary gland stroma of nulliparous mice

    Ying Wang, Thomas S Chaffee ... Kathryn L Schwertfeger
    A distinct resident macrophage subpopulation that localizes to the adipose stroma and fibrous capsule of the nulliparous mammary gland and to extracellular matrix-enriched stroma surrounding mammary tumors is identified.

    Drosophila PDGF/VEGF signaling from muscles to hepatocyte-like cells protects against obesity

    Arpan C Ghosh, Sudhir Gopal Tattikota ... Norbert Perrimon
    A muscle-derived signaling molecule suppresses excessive accumulation of lipids in the Drosophila adipose tissue by activating the Pi3K/Akt/mTOR signaling cascade in the Drosophila hepatocyte-like cells.

    Adipocyte microRNA-802 promotes adipose tissue inflammation and insulin resistance by modulating macrophages in obesity

    Yue Yang, Bin Huang ... Fangfang Zhang
    Mir802 serves as a pivotal mediator facilitating communication between adipose tissue and macrophages through the activation of NF-KB signaling pathways.

    MicroRNAs of the miR-17~92 family maintain adipose tissue macrophage homeostasis by sustaining IL-10 expression

    Xiang Zhang, Jianguo Liu ... Xiaoyu Hu
    miR-17~92 family of miRNAs control the balance between pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines in adipose tissue macrophages, the absence of which leads to disturbed adipose homeostasis.

    Brown adipocytes local response to thyroid hormone is required for adaptive thermogenesis in adult male mice

    Yanis Zekri, Romain Guyot ... Karine Gauthier
    T3 regulates BAT thermogenesis by controlling the expression of genes involved in the management of metabolic fuels as well as tissue plasticity.

    Metformin alleviates stress-induced cellular senescence of aging human adipose stromal cells and the ensuing adipocyte dysfunction

    Laura Le Pelletier, Matthieu Mantecon ... Veronique Bereziat
    Aging is associated with stress-induced senescence of adipose stromal cells, leading to impaired adipogenesis, oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and insulin resistance, all being alleviated by metformin treatment of adipose stromal cells.

    Remodeling of dermal adipose tissue alleviates cutaneous toxicity induced by anti-EGFR therapy

    Leying Chen, Qing You ... Shiyi Zhang
    Modulation of dermal adipocytes contributes to skin homeostasis and provides a promising new therapeutic strategy in the treatment of EGFRI-related skin disorders.
