Objective Dietary fibre has beneficial effects on energy metabolism, and the majority of studies have focused short-chain fatty acids produced by gut microbiota. Ginseng been reported to aid in body weight management, however, its mechanism action is not yet clear. In this study, we potential modulating effect ginseng microbiota, aiming identify specific strains their metabolites, especially long-chain (LCFA), which mediate anti-obesity ginseng. Design Db/db mice were gavaged with extract...

Significance In the current study, we show that brown adipose tissue (BAT) activity is dramatically reduced in a dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA)-induced polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) rat when compared with normal control rat. Importantly, key features of PCOS (such as insulin resistance and irregular estrous cycle) are alleviated after BAT transplantation. Mechanistically, transplanted enhances endogenous thereby increases circulating adiponectin level, which was lower both patient model....

Increasing energy expenditure through activation of brown adipose tissue (BAT) is a critical approach to treating obesity and diabetes. In this study, rutin, natural compound extracted from mulberry drug used as capillary stabilizer clinically for many years without any side effects, regulated whole-body metabolism by enhancing BAT activity. Rutin treatment significantly reduced adiposity, increased expenditure, improved glucose homeostasis in both genetically obese (Db/Db) diet-induced...

White adipose tissue expansion is associated with both hypertrophy and hyperplasia of adipocytes. Exercise training results in adipocyte hypotrophy by activating lipolysis, but it poorly understood whether exercise regulates adipogenesis altering adipogenic gene expression. The purpose this study was to evaluate the effect a single bout swimming on expression white (WAT). Male C57BL/6J mice were divided into two groups: sedentary control group 120-minute group. Immediately after acute...

Intermittent fasting (IF), as a dietary intervention for weight loss, takes effects primarily through increasing energy expenditure. However, whether inter-organ systems play key role in IF remains unclear. Here, novel hepatokine, pregnancy zone protein (PZP) is identified, which has significant induction during the refeeding stage of IF. Further, loss function studies and therapeutic experiment mice revealed that PZP promotes diet-induced thermogenesis activating brown adipose tissue (BAT)....

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common metabolic and endocrine disease affecting women of reproductive age. Due to its complex aetiology, there no currently effective cure for PCOS. Brown adipose tissue (BAT) activity significantly decreased in PCOS patients, BAT activation has beneficial effects animal models Here, we investigated the effect ginsenoside compound K (CK) an model mechanism activation.Primary brown adipocytes, Db/Db mice dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA)-induced rats were...

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disease accompanied by energetic metabolic imbalance. Because the etiology of PCOS complex and remains unclear, there no effective specific treatment for PCOS. It often various disorders such as obesity, insulin resistances, others. Activated brown adipose tissue (BAT) consumes excess energy via thermogenesis, which has positive effects on metabolism. Our previous research that others indicates BAT activity decreased in patients,...

Environmental temperature serves as a major driver of adaptive changes in wild organisms. To discover the mechanisms underpinning cold tolerance domestic animals, we sequenced genomes 28 cattle from warm and areas across China. By characterizing population structure demographic history, identified two genetic clusters, i.e., northern southern groups, well common historic peak at 30 kilo years ago. Genomic scan cold-tolerant breeds determined potential candidate genes thermogenesis-related...

Brown adipose tissue (BAT), an organ that burns energy through uncoupling thermogenesis, is a promising therapeutic target for obesity. However, there are still no safe anti-obesity drugs BAT in the market. In current study, we performed large scale screening of 636 compounds which were approved by Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to find could significantly increase protein 1 (UCP1) mRNA expression real-time PCR. Among those UCP1 activators, most them antibiotics or carcinogenic...

The intermittent fasting regimen (IFR) has been certified as an effective strategy for improving metabolism. But the underlying mechanism is still obscure. Beige induction in white adipose tissue (WAT) by IFR may account this. It demonstrated that erupting of pregnancy zone protein (PZP) from liver coincides with membrane translocation grp78 brown adipocytes during to activate (BAT), which partly explain metabolic benefits IFR. Liver-derived PZP appears be responsible all regulatory...

Environmental temperature serves a major driver for adaptive changes in wild organisms, however, its role domestication has been less characterized. To uncover the mechanisms of cold tolerance domestic animals, we sequenced genomes 28 cattle at median coverage from warm and areas across China. By characterizing population structure demographic history, identified two genetic clusters, i.e., northern southern groups, common historic peak 30 kilo years ago. Genome scan tolerant breeds revealed...
