adipose cells

[BioRestorative Therapies, Inc. (Globe Newswire, Inc.)] BioRestorative Therapies, Inc., a clinical stage company focused on stem cell-based therapies, announced that it has entered into a research collaboration agreement with Dr. Tore Bengtsson, Professor of the Department of Molecular Biosciences, at the Wenner-Gren Institute, at Stockholm University.

[European Journal of Nutrition] Investigators screened the actions of botanical extracts intended for oral use on human adipose tissue, using an in vitro screening model combining human intestinal cells with human adipose cells.

[Journal of Cell Science] Investigators modeled the relationship of adipocytes and endothelial cells in vitro to test the role of insulin in fatty acid transport.

[Journal of Cell Science] Treatment of endothelial cells with insulin did not affect endothelial fatty acid uptake, but endothelial cells took up more fatty acids when exposed to media conditioned by adipocytes treated with insulin.

[Scientific Reports] Scientists evaluated the inflammatory cell population in the adipose tissue of MRL/lpr mice, which could potentially influence their lean phenotype. They compared beige fat activity between the MRL/MpJ and MRL/lpr mice.

[Nature Communications] Investigators examined the transcriptomic profile of adipose-resident eosinophils and posit that KLF3 regulates adipose tissue function via transcriptional control of secreted molecules linked to beiging.
