African trypanosomiasis, which affects both animals and humans, is a progressive wasting disease. During this infection, the rapid growth of T. brucei in the AT, especially gonadal AT, the largest ...

National Taiwan University researchers, with collaborators in Taiwan and the US, report that adipocyte lipolysis activates epithelial hair follicle stem cells and drives hair regeneration via ...

The research focused on lipolysis, the process through which triglycerides – lipids stored in fat cells – are broken down to produce free fatty acids and glycerol, which can be used as energy, during ...

TNBCs rely on fatty acid oxidization (FAO) to fuel tumor growth by breaking down surrounding adipose tissue through lipolysis. Gap junctions, particularly involving GJB3 and connexin 31 (Cx31), ...

The same white blood cells that rush to fight infection seem to have a second job: preventing your body from burning too much fat. That’s the finding from a new study published in Nature, which ...

Ordinary fat cells in obese animals can be induced to burn energy stores, generating substantial heat, according to a preclinical study by Weill Cornell Medicine investigators. In the study, published ...

Researchers from the University of Birmingham have uncovered a completely new mechanism by which fat cells (adipocytes) control how they store and release fat. Published today in Nature Chemical ...

In this video, Jonathan from the Institute of Human Anatomy explores the only metabolic pathway capable of burning fat, using real cadaver dissections. The video covers the differences between ...
